Greek Mushroom Soup (Recipe)
Ingredients
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (I use Kasandrinos **FREE Bottle**)
1 small onion chopped
½ pound (250 g) fresh button mushrooms sliced
1 ½ cup (45 g) romaine lettuce chopped
5 oz (150 g) frozen spinach chopped or 12 oz fresh (350 g)
2 tbsp fresh dill chopped
2 tbsp tahini
1 ½ tbsp lemon plus more for serving
Salt/Pepper
Instructions
In a medium pot heat the olive oil and sauté the onions until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the mushrooms and sauté until liquids have evaporated. Add the lettuce and spinach and continue sautéing for 2-3 minutes. Add about 1 ½ cup water, ¼ tsp salt and simmer for 15 minutes.
Add the dill and heat for 1 more minute. Remove from heat and set aside. Remove 2 tablespoons of the broth/cooking water and set aside.
To make the tahini sauce mix 2 tbsp tahini with 1 ½ tbsp lemon juice mix until it turns white, add 1-2 tbsp of the saved cooking water, and mix well.
Add the tahini-lemon mixture gradually to the soup and mix gently until blended well. Heat the soup slightly at low heat-before serving.
To serve place soup in in a shallow bowl, squeeze some lemon, add black ground pepper. Add a few homemade croutons on top for some extra crunch.
Enjoy!!!
