2 medium leeks, trimmed, halved, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, crushed
400g flat mushrooms, diced
300g cup mushrooms, diced
1/3 cup plain flour
4 cups chicken stock
2/3 cup thickened cream
1/3 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
crusty bread, toasted, to serve

Method

1

Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until butter begins to foam. Add the leeks and garlic. Cook, stirring often, for 3–4 minutes or until leek is soft.

2

Add the mushrooms. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes or until mushrooms are tender. Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes.

Remove the pan from the heat. Gradually add the stock, stirring constantly. Return saucepan to medium-high heat. Cover and bring to the boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes or until thickened slightly.
