Crream of Mushroom Soup

Creamy, smooth, heavenly.... I simply adore the flavour of mushroom soup. During winters Soups are just so blissful. Loved the aroma spreading around of the house of butter sauteed mushrooms :) hmmm i know it sounds tempting. Well it sure is creamy but not fatty. I just did not have the heart to binge into cream, butter, cheese ...so made a nice low calorie soup.
It had a delicate flavour with a dash of spice of black pepper.
Lets get to the recipe:
One cup chopped button mushrooms
Half cup chopped white onion
1/4 cup chopped unpeeled potato
3-4 pods of crushed garlic
Dash of black pepper
Salt to taste
One cup low fat milk.
Water
One tsp butter
In a pressure cooker add mushrooms (leaving a few aside for garnishing), onions, potato, garlic and salt. Add enough water to cook the ingredients. Once cooked cool and blend them to a smooth paste.
In another pan heat some butter and saute the chopped mushrooms for about 2 minutes. Then add the blended veggies to it, Add milk and water. (Adjust your consistency) and let it boil for at least 15 min. Garnish with black pepper, parsley and a small glob of butter :)
