I found this recipe today at Whole Foods and thought it sounded intriguing. I made one change subbing 1 large onion for 2 leeks. I usually make pea soup with ham but this sounds delicious!
Ingredients:
2 cups split peas
3 quarts water or 3 quarts chicken broth
4 medium carrots, diced
3 celery ribs, diced
1 large onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 bay leaves
salt & freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
1. Combine peas and water in a large pot, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes.
2. Add remaining ingredients and simmer 2-3 hours or until peas are soft and the soup thickens.
