Cream of potato/mushroom/pepper soup

Submitted by Allie Jones

white onion, diced
8 oz. mushrooms, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 serrano pepper, minced
2 poblano peppers (I used anaheim chiles), charred under a broiler and seeded and chopped
3 med-large potatoes, diced
5 cups chicken or veggie broth
1 cup whipping cream (I used 1/2 & 1/2)
Salt and either black or white pepper

In large saucepan, saute onions in veggie oil until soft/aromatized. Add shrooms and saute for 2-3 more minutes. Add garlic and peppers and saute for another couple minutes. Then in a large soup pot, put in the broth, potatoes, and add the veggie saute. Simmer for about 15 minutes, until potatoes tender. Add cream. With a slotted spoon, take out 2-3 cups of the veggies and puree them in a food processor or blender, then add them back to the pot and stir well. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Should be about 6 servings
