Pea and Leek Soup (Hortosoupa)
Health Highlights

Ingredients


2 cup Leek (chopped, white and light-green parts only)
1 cup chopped Yellow onion
2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Black pepper
4 cup Vegetable stock/broth
5 cup Green peas, raw (or two 10 oz bags of frozen peas)
2/3 cup Mint, fresh (chopped, no stems)
1/2 cup Greek yogurt, plain, 2% M.F.
1/2 cup Chives

Instructions


Heat a large saucepan over medium heat for about 5 minutes, or until very hot. Add the leeks and onion to the pan and cook over medium heat until the onions are translucent and softened, 5 to 10 minutes. About halfway through the cooking, sprinkle the vegetables with 1 tsp salt to draw out the moisture. Drawing out the moisture helps reduce the cooking time.

Pour in the stock, increase the heat to medium-high, and bring the soup to a boil. Stir in the peas and cook until the peas are tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat, stir in the mint, 1 tsp salt and pepper.

Serve and enjoy!
