Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces Mushrooms (cremini and button)
  • 1 medium Onion (finely chopped)
  • 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons Butter (for sautéing)
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil (to balance the butter)
  • 4 cups Vegetable or chicken broth (for the soup base)
  • 1 cup Heavy cream (for indulgent smoothness)
  • 2 tablespoons Thickening agent (flour or cornstarch)
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme (for herbal notes)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley (for fresh color)
  • 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan cheese (for added richness)

Instructions

  1. Set Instant Pot to Sauté mode, melt butter with olive oil. Cook chopped onion and garlic until fragrant and translucent, about 2 minutes.
  2. Add mushrooms, stirring occasionally. Sauté until they release moisture and turn golden brown, about 5–7 minutes.
  3. Pour in broth and fresh thyme, scraping browned bits from the pot’s bottom for extra flavor.
  4. Seal lid, pressure cook on High for 5 minutes. Let natural release for 5 minutes, then quick-release any remaining pressure.
  5. Switch to Sauté, stir in cream and flour mixture. Simmer gently until soup thickens to a velvety consistency, about 3–4 minutes.
  6. Taste and adjust salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls, garnish with parsley or Parmesan for a warm, inviting finish.
