Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a Dutch oven or soup pot, melt butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, 1/2 cup of cilantro, and mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender (approximately 8-10 minutes). Season with salt and pepper.

02

Step

Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a gentle boil. Stir in the endive and the remaining 1/2 cup of cilantro. Add the milk and reduce the heat to low. Simmer gently for 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully. Season with cayenne pepper to your preferred level of spice.

03

Step

In a separate pan or bowl, temper the yogurt by gradually ladling in about 2 cups of the hot broth while whisking constantly. This crucial step prevents the yogurt from curdling. Once tempered, stir the yogurt mixture back into the main soup pot and remove from the heat.

04

Step

Ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with additional fresh cilantro for a vibrant finish. Serve immediately and savor the harmonious blend of flavors.

For a richer flavor, consider using a combination of mushroom varieties, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to suit your taste preferences. A pinch of smoked paprika can also add depth.
If you prefer a smoother soup, use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup before adding the yogurt.
Ensure the yogurt is full-fat for the best texture and flavor.
For a vegetarian option, substitute vegetable broth for the chicken broth.

    I made this soup for a dinner party and everyone raved about it. It's elegant enough for a special occasion, but also easy enough to make on a weeknight.

  • Abigail Turcotte

    I was a little hesitant about the endive, but it really works in this soup. It's a unique and delicious combination of flavors. I added a squeeze of lemon juice at the end for some extra brightness.

  • Amara Nicolas

    This soup is amazing! The slight bitterness of the endive is perfectly balanced by the richness of the mushrooms and the creamy yogurt. The cayenne pepper gives it just the right amount of kick.

  • Helen Bruenhyatt

    The yogurt tempering step is key! I skipped it the first time and ended up with curdled yogurt. The second time, I followed the instructions carefully and the soup was perfect.
