Soup from frozen chanterelles
Description
If you don't know what soup to cook for lunch and have no time or desire to spend much effort, make a soup from frozen chanterelles. You can prepare them in advance or buy frozen ones at the store. A simple recipe for soup from frozen chanterelles is as follows: 1. Chop the defrosted chanterelles into cubes, leaving small mushrooms whole. 2. Peel the onion, carrot, and potatoes, then rinse them. Dice the onion into small cubes, grate the carrot on a medium grater, and also cut the potatoes into cubes. 3. On medium heat, sauté the diced onion and grated carrot in butter. After about 5 minutes, add the chanterelles and continue frying, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes. 4. Pour water (about one and a half liters or less) into a pot, bring to a boil, then add black peppercorns, a bay leaf, and salt. Let it boil for a few minutes. 5. Transfer the mushrooms with onions into the pot, add the potatoes, and cook for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, check the potatoes. If they are done, the soup from frozen chanterelles is ready. Serve the soup hot with sour cream and chopped fresh herbs.
