INSTRUCTIONS

Add the dried porcini to the boiling water and set aside.  Heat the
olive oil and add the leeks, shallots and garlic and cook  until
golden, about 3 minutes.  Add all the fresh mushrooms, thinly sliced,
and cook until the  mushrooms soften and their liquid evaporates.
Sprinkle with the flour and stir well to enable the flour to be
absorbed. Add the chicken stock and the porcini mushrooms together
with the soaking liquid and bring to the boil, stirring frequently.
Once the soup is boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 30
minutes. Add the cream and simmer for a further 5 minutes or until
slightly thickened. Add half the chopped parsley and season to taste
with salt and pepper.  To serve, ladle into individual bowls, sprinkle
with extra parsley,  some nutmeg and a small dollop of cream if
desired.  Converted by MC_Buster.  Per serving: 562 Calories (kcal);
