Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Split peas
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 medium Onion, chopped
  • 2 medium Carrots, chopped
  • 2 stalks Celery, chopped
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 6 cups Vegetable or chicken stock
  • 2 Bay leaves
  • Salt and pepper to taste

    • Instructions

  • In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until vegetables are soft and the onions are translucent.
  • Add minced garlic and allow it to cook for an additional minute, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
  • Stir in the split peas, then pour in the vegetable or chicken stock. Add the bay leaves, salt, and pepper.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the peas are tender.
  • Once cooked, remove bay leaves and use an immersion blender for a creamier texture. If you don’t have one, you can carefully transfer the soup to a blender in batches. Return to pot.
  • Adjust seasoning according to taste and let it simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes to meld the flavors.
  • Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs or a drizzle of olive oil. Enjoy!
