INGREDIENTS

• Onion and garlic: For flavor. Use fresh garlic instead of garlic powder. 

• Green peas: Use frozen peas. If using fresh peas cooking time might be a bit longer. 

• Vegetable stock cube: To substitute use vegetable broth or stock, but in that case reduce the amount of water. Another good substitute is miso paste. 

• Coconut milk: Use full-fat canned coconut milk. Using full-fat milk will contribute to a very rich and creamy texture.

• Fresh cilantro: It´s important to use fresh cilantro for flavor. 

HOW TO MAKE THIS RECIPE: STEP BY STEP

Step 1

Add oil into a large pot with chopped onion and garlic and sauté over medium heat until translucent. Add frozen green peas, water, and vegetable stock cube to the pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer until peas are tender, for 5-10 minutes.

TIPS FOR MAKING THIS RECIPE PERFECTLY

• Make sure to blend until creamy. If you don't have an immersion blender use a regular blender. My container is big enough for the whole batch. This saves me some time. If your container is smaller, pour it into a blender in batches, until everything is thick and creamy. 

• Use full-fat coconut milk for the right texture. 

• Fresh cilantro is essential for the right flavor. If you absolutely can't stand cilantro, switch up the herbs. In that case, use basil or parsley.

STORAGE

Store your soup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days or in the freezer for 3 months.
