Creamy Hungarian Mushroom Soup - 37g Carbs, 4g Fiber, 0g Added Sugar

From: EatingWell - January/February 2011

Mushroom-soup lovers, this soup is for you! Russet potatoes make it
hearty, and dill and paprika add plenty of flavor. We skip the generous
amount of full-fat sour cream and butter typically used in creamy
mushroom soups. Serve with a green salad and warm pumpernickel bread.

Active Time: 45 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes
Servings: 6
Serving Size: about 1 1/2 cups each

1 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 lb mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 medium onion, diced
3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp paprika, preferably Hungarian (see Note)
2 Tbsp dried dill
4 cups mushroom broth or reduced-sodium beef broth
2 cups low-fat milk
1 1/2 lb russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream
3/4 tsp salt

Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and
onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid
evaporates, 10 to 15 minutes.

Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until the
mushrooms are very soft, about 3 minutes more. Add flour, paprika
and dill and cook, stirring, for 15 seconds. Add broth, milk and
potatoes; cover and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to maintain a
lively simmer and cook, uncovered, until the potatoes are tender,
about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in sour cream and
salt.

Make Ahead Tip:
Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days; reheat over low.

Note:
Paprika labeled "Hungarian" is worth seeking out for this soup
because it delivers a fuller, richer flavor than regular paprika.
Find it at well-stocked supermarkets, specialty-foods stores or
online at penzeys.com.
