Creamy Mush­room Soup With Rocket

(serves four)

3 tbsps but­ter
1 white onion, roughly chopped
4 cloves gar­lic, roughly chopped
1 lb mush­rooms, any sort you like, roughly chopped
4 cups-ish fresh chicken stock
2 tbsps brandy
1 tbsp fresh chopped thyme leaves
fresh rocket, about a cup loosely packed
1/2 cup sin­gle cream
salt and pep­per to taste

The rest couldn’t be sim­pler. Saute the onions, gar­lic and mush­rooms in the but­ter until slightly soft­ened, then pour over the stock and brandy, sim­mer until mush­rooms are soft. Add the thyme and rocket and cook just until rocket wilts, then whizz with your hand blender (I had to buy one in a nearby town!) and add the cream. Sea­son to taste. Divine!
