Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 cups finely chopped washed Boston lettuce leaves
2 cups water
1 package (10 ounces) thawed frozen tiny peas
1/4 cup (packed) washed mint leaves
2 cups ice water or heavy cream
1/4 cup snipped chives
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Plain yogurt for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • In a saucepan heat the olive oil. When hot, add the onion, cover and simmer gently for about 3 to 4 minutes or until tender. Add the lettuce and stir just until wilted. Add the 2 cups of water and peas and bring just to a boil and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and season with salt and pepper. Puree through a food mill or in a food processor with the mint, then add enough ice water or cream to thin to the desired consistency. Chill until serving time. Before serving, adjust the seasoning and serve garnished with chives and yogurt if you wish.

This soup is a great base recipe. I like to add other ingredients to it, such as cooked chicken or shrimp.

I made this soup exactly as the recipe said, but it turned out too thick. I had to add more water to thin it out.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover peas. I had a bag of frozen peas in my freezer that I needed to use up, and this soup was the perfect solution.
