TIPS

Here are some tips to help you prepare this minted green pea soup.

  • Creamier Texture: Increase the coconut milk for a richer, silkier consistency.
  • Deeper Flavour: Lightly sauté the peas before adding broth for a more intense taste.
  • Balanced Acidity: A squeeze of fresh lemon juice enhances the freshness.
  • Extra Thickness: Blend in a handful of cooked potatoes or white beans for a heartier soup.
  • Garnishing Ideas: Top with crushed pistachios, toasted seeds or a swirl of coconut cream.
  • Serving Suggestion: Pair with warm bread, crisp crackers or a light salad for a full meal.
  • Cooling Summer Option: Serve chilled for a refreshing cold soup.

VARIATIONS

  • Spiced Version: Add a pinch of cumin, coriander or chilli flakes for extra depth.
  • Protein Boost: Stir in cooked lentils, tofu, or chickpeas for a more filling dish.
  • Nutty Flavour: Blend in a spoonful of cashew or almond butter for added richness.
  • Low-Carb Alternative: Replace peas with steamed courgette or asparagus for a lighter version.
  • Extra Veggies: Mix in spinach, kale or roasted bell peppers for more nutrients.
  • Cheesy Twist: Sprinkle nutritional yeast or dairy-free cheese for a subtle umami boost.
  • Crunchy Topping: Garnish with crispy chickpeas or croutons for added texture.
  • Herb Infusion: Replace mint with basil, coriander or parsley for a different flavour profile.
