Here is a very fast and easy soup, with a rich, subtle flavour. Note: I adopted this recipe, and made changes to it which are not reflected in the review, as it was done before the changes.

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 button mushrooms, sliced
1 small leek, finely chopped
2 teaspoons unsalted butter or 2 (10 ounce) cans chicken broth
1 (19 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon green peppercorn
1 tablespoon sherry wine (optional)

Steps:

  • Clean and slice the mushrooms. Trim the leek, discarding the roots and dark green portions. Chop it fairly finely, and rinse and drain well.
  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat, and saute the leeks and mushrooms until soft and lightly browned.
  • Add the chicken stock, and reduce to a simmer.
  • Drain the artichokes, and chop them finely. Add them to the soup.
  • Season with the lightly crushed peppercorns, lemon juice and sherry. Check seasoning, and adjust with a little salt if needed.
  • Simmer for 5 minutes further, then serve.
