Number Of Ingredients 6

2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1 small onion
3/4 cup chicken broth
1 1/2 cups water
a 10-ounce package frozen peas
1 teaspoon coarse salt

Steps:

  • In a dry small heavy skillet toast cumin seeds over moderate heat, shaking skillet frequently, until a shade darker and fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes, and cool. With a mortar and pestle or in an electric coffee/spice grinder finely grind seeds.
  • Finely chop onion and in a 2-quart saucepan simmer onion in broth and water until soft. Add peas, half of cumin, and half of salt and simmer, uncovered, until peas are tender, about 5 minutes. In a blender purée soup in 2 batches until smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids) and transfer to another saucepan.
  • In a small bowl stir together remaining cumin and salt to use as garnish.

Just made this soup and it turned out great! The flavors are really well-balanced and the soup is nice and thick. I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth and it was still delicious. Highly recommend!

This soup is absolutely delicious! The cumin and peas go perfectly together, and the broth is so flavorful. I added a little bit of cayenne pepper to give it a bit of a kick, and it was perfect. Will definitely be making this again!
