Number Of Ingredients 14

1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon sweet butter
4 cups fresh peas
1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
3 cups chicken broth, up to 1 cup more for texture
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons minced fresh mint
1 pound cooked shrimps, medium- size, cut in half lengthwise
1 cup basmati rice, cooked and cooled
