Shiitake mushrooms are excellent in this dish,

Good quick way to cook asparagus. Did not have fresh coriander ( Covid pandemic quarantine) so I used ground. Needed a bit more, so I will try when I have fresh in the future...or a little sesame oil maybe?

Actually, I made this as recommended but with just a little coriander. But after sautéing the mushrooms, asparagus and shallots, I added chicken stock and simmered for 20 minutes after a quick boil. I added salt and pepper and then, in batches, put it into my Vitamin blender so that it was smooth but a little chunky. I added 1/3 c half and half and seasoned to taste. Made a delicious soup!

I have been making this since it appeared in the paper many years ago. Sometimes I don’t have the shallots so put in green onions or neither and it is still great.

I'm going to let it cool and throw it into a salad.
