Sanjeev kapoor = how to make a simple recipe super complicated.

For those who are worrying about ingredients- I tried this with only button mushrooms ( cheapest among all three) and used Tulsi leaves instead of thyme leaves and trust me it tastes amazing. One packet of mushrooms (cost appx.₹40-₹60) is sufficient for 4 people.

I have come to agree that it is impossible to recreate a Sanjeev Kapoor recipie. I can for once recreate Gordon Ramsay's recipie, but Sanjeev Kapoor sir is on some other level. Its IMPOSSIBLE to get to his level!

Should not have taken out the bits and pieces of mushrooms totally from the soup. They give the soup its texture. It is after all a soup, not a mushroom drink.

You lost me when you ran the morels through the blender. Waste of primo mushrooms

[bluesparrow]

What do you call thyme in hindi? As far as i know its not something you get in the bazaars in mumbai.

[sudipta]

Straining is unnecessary. Those chewable bits make this soup more tasty

3 things just shocked me!
-Why blend expensive mushrooms?
-Why use three different kinds of mushrooms ?( very high on budget)
- why use the stainer?
You have made an easy recipe look so difficult and so expensive! There is no need to add cream! Milk when cooked in butter n heavy flour will eventually turn to its thicker cousin ‘Cream’-
So sad pls remove this recipe n re do it
