How to Make Fresh Spring Pea Soup

Sauté Onions and Garlic

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes.

Cook Peas and Broth

Add the fresh peas and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for 10-15 minutes until the peas are tender.

Blend the Soup

Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until creamy.

Finish the Soup

Stir in the heavy cream (or coconut cream), salt, pepper, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Serve and Garnish

Serve the soup hot, garnished with fresh mint leaves and optional croutons or toasted bread for added texture.

Baking Tips

For extra creaminess, you can add more heavy cream or a splash of coconut milk.

Add a handful of spinach or kale to boost the nutritional content of the soup.

For a lighter version, omit the cream and use more vegetable broth for a thinner soup.
