Creamy Hungarian Mushroom Soup

INGREDIENTS

1 1/2 pounds mushrooms, thinly sliced

1 medium onion, diced

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons paprika, preferably Hungarian (see Note)

2 tablespoons dried dill

4 cups mushroom broth or reduced-sodium beef broth

2 cups low-fat milk

1 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces

1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream

3/4 teaspoon salt

PREPARATION

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.
