Gently fry the shallots in the vegan butter, add the chopped mushrooms. Continue to

Add the stock, milk, hazelnuts and parsely leaves. Cover and gently simmer for 15 mins.
Remove some of the stock.
Blend in a FP. Add cream and a knob of vegan margerine, a few drops of balsamic vinegar.
Adjust seasoning to taste. If the soup is too thick add extra stock.

Serve with a drizzle of hazelnut oil (optional) and warm toasted wholemeal pitta bread.

This looks really good but I am having trouble converting the measurements. What is a knob? What is a FP?
 
Thanks! I managed to convert most of it. For anyone else preferring the cups/pounds/tbps conversion,

1/2 lb to 1 lb mushrooms
1/4 cup (rougly) hazelnuts
2 cups veg broth
1/2 cup almond milk
1 tbsp margarine + another 1-2 tbsp margarine
