This is one of the the BEST soups I've made for myself! I found a recipe and totally twisted it and the result was absolutely fabulous! Optionally, it has no dairy in it, so you vegans out there can give it a shot...
Ingredients:
2-3 cups of green peas
1/2 large onion finely chopped
1 large garlic clove (or 2 small ones), finely chopped
1tbs olive oil
(1 tbs butter optional)
1.5 pint veggie stock
5-10g root ginger, finely chopped
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
salt and pepper to taste
Fry onion, ginger and garlic in olive oil in a big pan (or pot might be better).
Add peas and stir for about 3 minutes (optional: you can add butter here).
Add stock and bring to boil
Use hand blender to liquidise
Add salt and/or pepper to taste and eat it hot (yummers!)
Sadly, silly me used a traditional blender and didn't press the lid down tight enough. Now I am sitting here with half a stinging red face waiting for the bloody swelling to go away. But at least I have my yummy soup to keep me happy!
And remember, soup is a great appetite suppressor and meal, especially if you're on a diet!!!
Bon appetite!
