Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion, diced
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 500 grams cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 250 grams shiitake mushrooms, sliced
- 1 liter vegetable broth
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon thyme, fresh
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 small lime, juiced
Directions
Step 1
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Step 4
Add the cremini and shiitake mushrooms to the pot, stirring occasionally, and cook until they release their moisture and begin to brown, approximately 10 minutes.
Step 5
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Let it cook for about 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Step 8
Remove the pot from heat. Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a blender, then return it to the pot once blended.

Add the lime juice to the soup, then taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Step 10
Serve hot and enjoy your dairy-free Crema de Hongos!
