This is a very easy recipe...my family loves it and requests it often...good cold weather food...great with crusty fresh bread...I often cook this without the recipe...I use my tastebuds when adding the sherry and sometimes add more or less flour depending on how thick I want the soup...Hope you all enjoy it as much as my family and I do!
