Delicious Mushroom And Onion Soup Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 medium red onions
• 1 pound baby portabella mushrooms, sliced thinly
• ¼ cup olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
• 12 ounces extra firm tofu, cut into 1 inch cubes
• ½ cup gluten-free Tamari sauce
• 1 cup chopped cilantro
• 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
• zest of one lemon
• ¼ cup of lemon juice
• ½ pound angle hair pasta
• 2 scallions, chopped

Directions To Prepare Mushroom And Onion Soup

1. Cut the onion into thin slices. Heat the olive oil and cook the onion on low heat until the onions are caramelized.

2. Remove the onions and set aside. Add most of the mushrooms and saute in the oil for couple minutes. Remove the mushrooms and set aside.

3. Saute the garlic, most of the cilantro and the ginger in the olive oil for few seconds.

4. Add the caramelized onions back to the pot. Add 8 cups of water, the tamari sauce, the lemon zest and the lemon juice. Bring to a boil and adjust the seasoning. Simmer for 5 minutes.

5. Boil the soup, adjust the flavors and then add the tofu.

6. You can use any noodles in this soup but I use angle hair pasta.  I boil the pasta in separate pot, drain and then spoon little amount into a bowl.  I then spoon the soup on top, sprinkle with the fresh sliced mushrooms, fresh chopped cilantro and chopped scallions.
