Background

This vegan asparagus and green pea soup is delicate, healthy and very easy to make. It’s ideal as a starter in a festive menu or at a dinner party. Serve it with crostini or scones.

Ingredients

2 Tbsp olive oil
1 leek, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
500 ml vegetable stock
1 bunch asparagus
1.5 cups green peas, thawed if using frozen
1 handful fresh parsley leaves
Chopped parsley to garnish

Instructions

Heat the oil in a saucepan, then add the leeks. Gently sauté until soft then add the garlic and cook for a minute.
Add the stock and bring to a boil.
Once boiling, add the asparagus and cook for a couple of minutes. Add the peas and cook for another 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and add the parsley.
Using a hand-held blender purée it until you get a smooth, silky soup. Add more stock if it’s too thick. Reheat if necessary.
Serve with chopped parsley scattered on top.
