Good day! So, as I said last time, I'm no chef. Anything culinary I post here is really me learning how to cook. I'm always on the look-out for easy recipes that are healthy(-ish) and when I'm happy with the results, I like to share what I've learned. So here we go.
{Green Pea Soup}
4 cups (1 lb/500g) of frozen peas
1/2 cup (125 ml) heavy cream ~ I used Half & Half
Salt & pepper
Grated Parmesan (optional ~ for serving)
Chopped fresh mint leaves
Directions:
Bring 1 and a 1/2 cups of water to a boil. Pinch of salt. Add peas to boiling water. Bring back to boil. Cover. Cook until soft. (10 Minutes, about.)
Blend to a purée. (Say hello to Buddha.) Strain into a clean saucepan. Stir in the cream. Reheat. Serve with chopped mint (very important), parmesan, and buttered toast.
So here it is. It's delicious, it's rich and with the mint it's down right delectable. Does this not look like a perfect spring lunch?
Recipe from here.
