At a glance
This vibrant green pea soup comes together in just 22 minutes with minimal hands-on time—you're mostly waiting for the peas to simmer. The key trick is blending and straining the soup to remove pea skins and achieve that silky-smooth texture. A drizzle of sour cream and a sprinkle of crunchy toppings turn this delicate dish into something truly special.
1/4
Sauté the onion
In a pot, sauté the finely chopped onion in a knob of butter. Just lightly, so it stays pale and doesn't brown.

Cook the soup
Add the peas and pour in the stock. Stir everything together and season with pepper and nutmeg. Simmer for another 10 minutes — no longer, so the soup keeps its lovely colour. Then stir in the sour cream and simmer for one more minute.

Blend and strain
Blend the finished soup until creamy. Then pass it through a sieve, since blending alone won't get rid of the pea skins.
