Cooking Instructions

1

Sauté the Aromatics

In a large pot, heat a little oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent.

2

Add the Peas

Stir in the fresh peas and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

3

Add Broth and Simmer

Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the peas are tender.

4

Blend the Soup

Remove the pot from heat and let it cool slightly. Use an immersion blender or transfer the mixture to a blender. Blend until smooth.

5

Add Cream and Season

Stir in the heavy cream, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. If the soup is too thick, you can add a little more broth or water.

6

Chill the Soup

Transfer the soup to a container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until well chilled.

7

Serve

Ladle the chilled pea soup into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh mint before serving.
