Ingredients You Need 

To make this Delicious recipe all you need is

• Oil: I am using extra virgin olive oil but you can use any plant-based oil.  
• Onion: Sweet white onions are the preferred one.  
• Garlic Paste: Garlic is a must because you cannot imagine a hearty soup without a touch of garlic flavor.  
• Mushroom: I am using Crimini mushrooms because of their earthy flavor. Button mushrooms can be used too.  
• Asparagus: Fresh green stalk of asparagus.   
• Potato: To add creaminess and texture to the soup.  
• Seasoning and Herbs: Salt, Black Pepper, Rosemary, and Oregano.  
• Vegetable Stock: You can also use water and stock cube instead.   
• Nutritional Yeast: It will add some cheesy kick to your creamy soup, it's optional and you can leave it if you don’t have it or don’t like its flavor.  
• Oat Milk: Any plant-based milk will do the task but I found oat milk the best option for soups.  

How to Make Asparagus Mushroom Soup  

Make this rich and fulfilling soup in 5 easy steps.

1. Prepare the Vegetables: Slice mushrooms, Trim and discard woody ends of asparagus, chop the stalks into 2-inch pieces, and reserve the tips for garnishing. Chop onions and peel and cube potatoes.   
2. Cook: Heat oil in a stockpot and fry chopped onions and garlic paste. Add mushrooms, asparagus stalks, and potatoes.   
3. Season: Season it with salt and pepper. Sprinkle Rosemary and oregano and mix well.  
4. Boil, Simmer and Blend: Whisk in vegetable broth, nutritional yeast, and oat milk. Bring it to a boil and then reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for about 15 minutes or until potatoes are fork-tender. Purée the soup with a hand blender or transfer to a food processor and blend.   
5. Garnish and Serve: For garnishing heat a teaspoon of oil in a pan, add sliced mushroom and asparagus tips, and stir-fry for about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat. Serve the soup and garnish it with some oat cream, stir-fried mushrooms, asparagus tips, and some pumpkin seeds.
