Cool magic
Frozen peas, contrary to popular belief, offer a wealth of nutrition because they’re frozen quickly after harvesting, preserving their nutritious goodness.
- 1 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 1/2 cups peeled and diced yellow onion
- 2 garlic cloves peeled and crushed
- 1 Tbsp sherry
- 900 mL mushroom stock
- 1 1/2 cups peeled and diced russet potato
- 4 cups frozen green peas thawed
- 2 tsp truffle oil
- Salt and pepper to taste (optional)
- In large saucepan over medium, heat olive oil. Add onions and sauté for 5 minutes. Add in garlic and sherry and cook for a minute. Add stock and potatoes. Bring to a boil and cook for 15 minutes. Then add peas and continue to cook until potatoes are fork-tender, approximately another 15 minutes.
- With an emersion blender, or transferring to a blender, purée soup until smooth. Add truffle oil and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper, if using. Optionally, serve with extra truffle oil drizzled overtop, but remember: a little goes a long way.
