PEA & MINT SOUP



Pea & mint soup image

A superhealthy starter or snack that's great hot or cold

Provided by Maxine Clark

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Snack, Soup, Supper

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 bunch spring onions, trimmed and roughly chopped
1 medium potato, peeled and diced
1 garlic clove, crushed
850ml vegetable or chicken stock
900g young pea in the pod (to give about 250g/9oz shelled peas)
4tbsp chopped fresh mint
large pinch caster sugar
1 tbsp fresh lemon or lime juice
150ml buttermilk or soured cream

Steps:

  • Put the spring onions into a large pan with the potato, garlic and stock. Bring to the boil, turn down the heat and simmer for 15 minutes or until the potato is very soft. For the garnish, blanch 3 tbsp of the shelled peas in boiling water for 2-3 minutes, drain, put in a bowl of cold water and set aside. Add the remaining peas to the soup base and simmer for 5 minutes - no longer, or you will lose the lovely fresh flavour of the peas.
  • Stir in the mint, sugar and lemon or lime juice, cool slightly then pour into a food processor or liquidiser and whizz until as smooth as you like. Stir in half the buttermilk or soured cream, taste and season with salt and pepper.
  • To serve the soup cold, cool quickly, then chill - you may need to add more stock to the soup before serving as it will thicken as it cools. To serve hot, return the soup to the rinsed-out pan and reheat without boiling (to prevent the buttermilk or soured cream from curdling).
  • Serve the soup in bowls, garnished with the remaining buttermilk and the drained peas.

2 ½ cups vegetable broth or stock
3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves
2 ½ cups milk
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch white sugar
½ cup light whipping cream

SPRING PEA SOUP WITH MINT



Spring Pea Soup with Mint image

As a chef, peas have become one of my favorite spring ingredients. I love this soup because it's super easy and tasty. As the weather gets warmer, I love keeping some on hand in the fridge and serving it chilled. It's so refreshing. Hot or cold, this is the perfect spring soup!

Provided by Danielle Alex

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 shallots, chopped (about 1/3 cup)
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups fresh English peas, shelled or frozen peas, thawed
Pinch cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup packed fresh spinach (about 1 1/2 ounces)
1/4 cup lightly packed fresh mint leaves, chopped
Chopped pea shoots, chopped fresh chives or whole mint leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • Bring 2 1/2 cups of water to a boil in a small saucepan over high heat.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and cook until translucent, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until just before it
  • starts to brown, about 1 minute. Stir in the peas, cayenne pepper, 1 teaspoon salt and boiling water. Reduce to medium-low heat and simmer until the peas are tender, about 2 minutes.
  • Let the pea mixture cool for 5 minutes or so, then transfer it to a blender, filling only halfway. Add the spinach and mint. Put the lid on, leaving one corner open. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth. Depending on the size of your blender you may need to blend the soup in two or three batches.
  • Return the soup to the saucepan and adjust its consistency as desired, adding room temperature water if it's too thick. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the soup hot or place the soup in an ice bath for about 20 minutes and serve chilled. Top with pea shoots, chives or mint.
