EASY VEGAN SPLIT PEA SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat your oven or convection toaster oven to 400°F.
• Warm the olive oil in a large stock pot over medium-high heat. Add the onions and carrots and cook until starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the diced potatoes, oregano, and thyme and mix. Add the peas and veggie broth, stir well, and bring to a rolling boil. Turn the heat to low, then partially cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the peas turn to mush, about 45 minutes.
• While the soup cooks, toss the cubed bread with the olive oil, then sprinkle on the sumac and toss to distribute. Spread the bread out onto a greased baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, tossing once halfway through.
• When the soup is done cooking, add cayenne pepper, salt, and a bunch of black pepper to taste. Serve the soup topped with a few croutons and some extra black pepper. Enjoy!

EASY PEASY PEA SOUP

Steps:

• Add the oil to a large saucepan on a medium heat. Add in the vegetables and stir well. Cook for a couple of minutes then add in the mixed dried herbs and stir well. Add the beans and the hot stock and bring to a gentle simmer.
• Pour in the frozen peas and leave to simmer gently for 10 minutes or until the vegetables are just cooked. Leave the lid off as this helps the vegetables retain their vibrant color. Once cooked blend with stick blender or in a food processor until completely smooth.
• Ladle into bowls and garnish with the croutons and a drizzle of olive oil.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the cubed bread in a medium sized mixing bowl. Drizzle over the olive oil, salt and mixed herbs and mix together with clean hands or spoon till evenly coated. Tip onto a baking tray, spread out evenly and bake for around 15 minutes until golden brown, turning them half way through. Remove and leave to cool.

EASY SPLIT PEA SOUP

Steps:

• Fry the onion in a little butter and cook for 2 minutes. Add the other vegetables and the potato and cook a few minutes more.
• Pour in the hot stock and the split peas. Bring to a simmer and let them cook for 40 to 50 minutes under a lid or until the peas are cooked through.
• Take the soup from the heath and mix well. Season if necessary but be careful with salt as the bacon is already quite salty. Add the smoked bacon cubes and let the soup stand for about 15 min with the lid on before serving so the smokey taste of the bacon can infuse the soup.

EASY PEASY SPLIT PEA SOUP

Steps:

• Slice the bacon into 1/2-inch chunks. Add to a large soup pot and cook over medium-high heat to render the fat and get crispy on all sides, about 8 minutes total. The more brown the better; just don't burn them. They are perfect when they are more chewy than juicy.
• Remove bacon chunks and set aside on a paper towel lined plate. Pour off all but 2 to 3 tablespoons of fat from the stock pot. Add the onion, carrot and celery with a pinch of salt and pepper and saute until onions are just translucent, about 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cumin and let cook another minute before adding the split peas and stock. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the peas are al dente (cooked through, but slightly firm and whole), about 20 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes.
• Ladle out about 3 cups of the peas and carefully blitz the remaining soup using an immersion blender or countertop blender until creamy. If using a countertop blender be sure to only fill it about 1/3 the way up and start on a slow speed, then raise to a higher speed. This method will take a bit longer due to the need to blitz in batches. Pour the soup back into the pot. Return the 3 cups of peas to the soup and stir to combine and heat through. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. To serve, ladle the soup into bowls and top with bacon, tomato and a squeeze of lime.
