so knock yourself out with this one. It’s beautiful too! You can, of course, take a much larger serving if you wish.

Instructions
Sauté the mushrooms, broth, onion and oregano in a large pot until soft
- about 5 minutes at high temperature.

Then add butter, salt, pepper, heavy cream and lastly the xantham gum.

Then bring this to the boil. Allow to cool and store in refrigerator.

Note: This can easily become a chicken soup recipe. Just replace the mushrooms with chicken and voila!

Lower Fat Tip – Try replacing butter with margarine and reducing the cup of double cream to half a cup. It will turn out a little thinner but still delicious.
