VEGETARIAN SLOW COOKER SPLIT PEA SOUP

Got this recipe online a couple years ago. I've tweaked it a little bit and will probably continue to experiment by throwing other vegetables in. It's a great soup for a cold day when I know I won't have time to cook dinner. I usually make a batch and freeze what we don't eat. It tastes the same when reheated after the freezer, but the texture does change slightly. Lasts a few days in the fridge as well.

THAI TWIST SLOW COOKER VEGETARIAN SPLIT PEA SOUP

Thai Twist Slow Cooker Vegetarian Split Pea Soup image

Some days you just need a slow cooker meal...! Love soups and was looking for something a little different. If you have an open jar or packet of thai curry paste in your fridge, and you like the flavour of it, this is another way to enjoy it. Most of the items are pantry staples, which is how this came to be, and it's fairly low calorie/low fat. I made it to fit a small crock pot (2.5 Q I think)....yields enough for 2 good sized portions. If you use a larger crock pot you would probably have to double the recipe. Some flat bread on the side makes it a meal.

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

1/2 onion, diced
1 stalk celery, diced
1 carrot, diced
1/2 cup split peas, green, dried
1/4 cup pearl barley
1/4 cup red lentil, dried
2 teaspoons Braggs liquid aminos
1 teaspoon garlic, minced, use fresh or garlic powder, it won't matter much
2 teaspoons Thai curry paste
2 cups vegetable stock, or use 1 bouillon cube or equivelant stock powder

1 bay leaf
2 fresh lime leaves, dried

Add the items to your slow cooker and stir.
In the small cooker it only took 4 hours on high, which could easily be stretched out to 8 hours on low. Keep an eye on the water content -- it may need more water or broth added depending on your cooker.

Tips:

Soak the split peas: Soaking the split peas for at least 4 hours, or overnight, will help to reduce cooking time and improve the texture of the soup.
Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for carrots, celery, and onion, but you can also add other vegetables like potatoes, parsnips, or turnips.
Add herbs and spices: To give the soup more flavor, add herbs like thyme, rosemary, or sage. You can also add spices like cumin, coriander, or paprika.
Don't overcook the soup: Split pea soup is best when it is slightly thick and creamy. If you overcook it, the peas will become mushy and the soup will lose its flavor.
Serve with crusty bread or crackers: Split pea soup is traditionally served with crusty bread or crackers. This helps to soak up the delicious broth and makes the soup even more satisfying.

Conclusion:

Split pea soup is a hearty, flavorful, and nutritious soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a very versatile soup, so you can easily customize it to your own taste. Whether you like it thick or thin, mild or spicy, there is a split pea soup recipe out there for you. So next time you are looking for a comforting and delicious meal, give split pea soup a try.
