About this recipe

Creamy green pea soup with mint is a light blended soup made with vegetable broth, onion, yogurt, and olive oil. Peas provide natural sweetness and vivid color, while mint adds freshness and keeps the soup from feeling heavy. Yogurt contributes a mild tang and rounds out the flavor after blending. Brief cooking helps preserve the peas’ bright color and the mint’s fresh aroma. It is a good choice when you want a quick, simple soup with a fresh flavor and vivid color.

Ingredients

Servings
Base: 4
  • 450 g frozen peas

  • 1 onion

  • 700 ml vegetable broth

  • a few mint leaves

  • 2 tablespoons yogurt

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps

  1. Chop the onion, keep the peas frozen until they are added, and reserve the mint and yogurt for the final stage to preserve their fresh flavor.

  2. Sauté the onion in the olive oil for 3–4 minutes, until softened. Pour in the broth and bring to a gentle boil.

  3. Add the frozen peas to the hot broth and cook for 5–7 minutes, just until tender, so they retain their green color.

  4. Remove the saucepan from the heat and blend the peas with the broth using an immersion blender with its head submerged. Separately, stir a few tablespoons of hot soup into the yogurt, adding them gradually. Stir this into the soup along with the rinsed mint leaves and blend briefly again.

  5. Serve immediately after adding the mint and yogurt. Do not simmer the soup again for a long time, so the peas retain their color and the mint retains its fresh aroma.
