If you’re looking for a perfect spring soup, look no further. This vibrant green pea soup is light, fresh and with a green pea taste that comes through beautifully. It’s super simple to make, needs only a few ingredients and it tastes delightful. if you need a quick, delicious and protein rich appetiser, this soup is a great choice.
The main ingredient are frozen green peas. They need only about 3 minutes to cook and they have a very fresh taste. I wanted to preserve this freshness in the soup so I added just a little bit of plant based cooking cream and vegan butter which mellow the sharpness of pure green peas. After 3 minutes of cooking the green peas all you have to do is put all ingredients for the soup in a blender and mix together into a silky liquid. All together it takes about 15 minutes and it needs just 3 ingredients (not counting water and salt).
If you do have some more time, you can prepare sides to go with the soup, like homemade baguette, vegan garlic cheesy bread (or just garlic bread) or even avocado toast.
