Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups sliced mushrooms
- 3 cups beef broth
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until they are soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
- Add the ground beef to the pot and cook until browned. Drain excess fat if necessary.
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the pot and cook for another 5 minutes, until they are tender and have released their juices.
- Sprinkle the flour over the beef and mushroom mixture, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Let it cook for 2 minutes.
- Slowly pour in the beef broth while stirring, followed by the heavy cream. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to simmer.
- Add the shredded Swiss cheese to the pot, stirring until melted and well combined. Season with salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce to taste.
- Allow the soup to simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it reaches a creamy consistency. Adjust seasonings if necessary.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving, if desired. Enjoy your Mushroom Swiss Cheeseburger Soup hot!
Helpful Tips
- If you prefer a thicker soup, add an extra tablespoon of flour.
- For a lighter option, substitute half of the heavy cream with milk or a non-dairy alternative.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
Pairings
Complement this rich soup with a side of crusty garlic bread or a fresh green salad. For drinks, a light white wine or a crisp lager would be an excellent choice.
