Cook and Prep Time ⏰

Instructions 🥄

1. Melt the Butter: Begin by melting 4 tablespoons of butter in a large pot over medium heat. The aroma of melting butter will set the stage for the delicious soup to come.

2. Sauté the Onions: Add the finely chopped onions to the pot and sauté for about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally until the onions become translucent and release their natural sweetness.

3. Cook the Mushrooms: Toss in the sliced fresh mushrooms and continue to sauté for an additional 5 minutes. The mushrooms should start to soften and release their moisture, blending beautifully with the onions.

4. Add the Broth and Spices: Pour in 2 cups of chicken broth. Stir in the paprika, soy sauce, and dried dill weed. These spices will infuse the soup with rich, traditional Hungarian flavors.

5. Simmer: Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the soup simmer for 15 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together harmoniously.

6. Incorporate the Cream: Slowly pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously to blend well. This will give the soup a luscious, creamy texture.

7. Simmer Again: Cover the pot again and let it simmer for another 10 minutes. The cream will thicken slightly, adding to the soup’s richness.

8. Final Touches: Stir in the salt, fresh ground pepper, lemon juice, and sour cream. Mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined.

9. Heat Through: Allow the soup to heat through for 4-5 minutes. This final step ensures all the flavors are fully developed and the soup is perfectly warm.

10. Garnish and Serve: Serve the soup hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley. The vibrant green parsley adds a lovely contrast and a hint of freshness to the rich, creamy soup.
