How to Make Curried Mushroom Soup

  1. In a large bowl, combine 4 cups boiling water, 1 cup dried mushrooms, and 1/2 cup fresh oysters. Let soak for at least 15 minutes to rehydrate the dried mushrooms.
  2. Preheat a large, heavy-bottomed stockpot over medium heat for 1 minute. Lightly coat with cooking spray (2 sprays).
  3. Add 2 cups sliced leeks and sauté for 3 minutes, or until softened and translucent, stirring frequently.
  4. Stir in 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour and 1 tablespoon curry powder until well combined.
  5. Gradually whisk in 4 cups milk and 1 bouillon cube, ensuring no lumps form.
  6. Increase heat to high and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly until small bubbles form around the edges.
  7. Reduce heat to low. Remove the soaked mushrooms from their liquid, strain the liquid, squeeze out excess moisture from the mushrooms, and roughly chop them.
  8. Add the chopped soaked mushrooms and 1 cup of fresh sliced mushrooms to the soup. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  9. Stir in 2 tablespoons dry sherry and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  10. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley or chives (optional).
