Green Pea Soup (V, GF)
This vibrant green pea soup is an easy and fresh spring appetiser. It has a wonderful natural taste of green peas, it's made in about 15 minutes and needs only a few ingredients.
Ingredients
- 400 g frozen green peas
- 400 ml (1 2/3 cups) water
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 10 g (2 tsp) vegan butter
- 60 ml (1/4 cup) plant based cooking cream I used soy cream from Valsoia
To decorate (optional):
- plant based cooking cream
- cooked green peas
Instructions
- Rinse frozen green peas under warm water. If you want to use some of green peas for the decoration on top of the soup, put a handful of additional peas to the rest of 400g of peas.
- Put green peas, water for the soup and salt in a pot and heat it on the stove. Bring it to boil then turn to low and cook covered for 3 min.
- While green peas are cooking, put other two ingredients for the soup in a blender.
- After 3 min turn off the stove. Reserve a handful of cooked green peas for the decoration on top, if using. Add the rest of the peas and water to the blender. Mix everything together well.
- Divide between two bowls. Optional top with plant based cream and cooked green peas.
- Serve warm as it is or with some warm bread on a side, like baguette, vegan garlic cheesy bread (or just garlic bread) or even avocado toast.
Notes
*Don't use coconut milk instead of other plant based cooking cream for this soup as the taste is better with a cream that is more subtle.
*You can also just skip the plant based cooking cream, it will be delicious as well.
*For the vegan butter I used Naturli' brand.
