Split Pea Soup
Just a lovely warming soup. I use ham stock which I freeze after cooking the Christmas ham.
Difficulty and servings
Serves 4
Preparation and cooking times
12 hours soaking time for the yellow split peas
- Soak the yellow split peas for 12 hours in cold water.
- Rinse the split peas, put in a large pan and cover with the stock. Bring to the boil and simmer for 25 mins.
- Remove any scum and add the onion, sweet potato and carrots. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, until the veg are tender.
- Cool slightly, then blend until smooth.
- Return to the pan and reheat, adding the spinach to wilt it.
