Easy Peasy Soup

I have never, ever liked Pea Soup, but that’s because the soup I grew up with was army green and reminded me of the scene from The Exorcist when Regan vomits all over her mother. This is not that soup.

Ingredients

• Olive oil

• 1 white onion, chopped

• 2 cloves garlic, chopped

• 2 bags of frozen sweet peas

• 4 cups chicken or vegetable stock

• Salt and pepper

• Optional garnishes: crispy bacon, pancetta or prosciutto, fresh mint leaves, creme fraiche or toasted pepitas

Instructions

Saute onions and garlic in oil until soft. Add peas and stock and simmer for 5 minutes. Blend with an immersion blender until smooth. Adjust to taste with salt and pepper. Serve hot.
