Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 garlic clove, minced
1 stalk celery, diced
1 medium sweet onion, diced
2 portabella mushrooms
2 tablespoons butter
3 cups half-and-half
1 ounce dry sherry
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan sauté garlic, onion and celery in 1 tablespoon of butter for about 5 minutes. Slice 1/2 mushroom in bite-size pieces and set aside.
  • Dice the rest of the mushrooms and add to sautéing vegetables.
  • Cook until all of the vegetables are soft, about 5-8 more minutes. Add sherry, stir and remove from the heat. With a handheld blender (or you can use a food processor), purée vegetables until smooth.
  • If you need to, add some of the half and half to aid in blending.
  • Return to stove, add the rest of the half and half, the sliced mushrooms and the last tablespoon of butter.
  • Heat until sliced mushrooms are cooked, about 5-8 minutes, taste, adding salt and pepper if needed, and serve. Enjoy!
