This delightful soup is converted from WW Soup book. It is inexpensive and serves 4 generously.

6 slices ( 90g) pancetta, cooked until crisp. (optional)

Method

Add Onion and leek to TMX bowl and chop,  speed 7/10 seconds
Add butter and cook, speed 1/5minutes/100 degrees
Add mushrooms, speed2/5minutes/100 degrees, CUP OUT
Add wine ,cook speed2/5minutes/100 degrees
Add chicken stock and diced potato, cook speed 1/ 10 minutes/ Varoma temp
Blend 1 minute,speed 9.
Cool for 10 minutes and add cream and tarragon, optional
Serve sprinkled with crisp pancetta.

Notes. I didn't use any of the optional extras and it was lovely.
Although the recipe says 4 serves, I think 6 .
Reheats well.
Would freeze.
Add Salt and pepper to taste. I used home made chicken stock and didn't add either.
I also used a mix of closed and open cup mushrooms.

This will be on our menu plan this week, thanks Chookie.

I made this one and had some for lunch today.  I used Swiss Brown mushrooms and wanted to add the cream but didn’t add the pancetta topping.  It was a thin soup so I’ve labelled the packs for the freezer ‘cup of mushroom soup’. I enjoyed it Chookie, much tastier and healthier than the bought packets of the same soup.
