There is nothing more comforting than a bowl of thick hearty soup, like this Yellow Split Pea Soup!
All you need is yellow split peas, carrots, onion, garlic, broth, and some spices, and all you need to do is cook all the ingredients, puree and serve. EASY!
If you want to pair with something more filling, here are some ideas: Olive Bread or Garlic Bread.
Yield: Serves 5
- 1 cup dried yellow split peas
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 5 cups chicken (or vegetable) broth
- 1 medium carrot, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Worcester sauce
- 1 teaspoon curry powder
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- salt & black pepper to taste
- fresh coriander for garnish
Heat the oil in a large pot. Add the onion and sauté until golden. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
Add the yellow split peas, carrot, chicken broth, Worcester sauce, curry powder, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer and cook for about 60-80 minutes or until the peas start to break down.
Remove from heat and let the soup cool slightly. Then puree in a blender or food processor until smooth (If soup is too thick, add a little hot water). Garnish with fresh coriander and serve with bread.
