Green Pea and Zucchini Soup

Ingredients

Olive oil 2 tsp

Onion 1

Garlic 2 cloves

Potatoes 300 g

Broth 1000 ml

Green peas 375 g

Zucchini 300 g

Mint 1/4 cup

Pepper

Salt

Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes until soft.

Add the garlic and cook for another minute, until fragrant. Add the potatoes and water or broth.

Increase the heat and bring to a boil. Add fresh peas immediately after the potatoes have boiled. Frozen peas should be added last, along with the zucchini.

 Once boiling, reduce heat and simmer for about 8 minutes, until the potatoes are almost done. Add the zucchini (and peas, if using frozen) and simmer for another 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.

Add the mint and puree the soup. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with green onions.

Enjoy!
