Ingredients
- 6 cups water or vegetable broth
- 2 large zucchini zucchini
- 2 cups pea freshly shelled or frozen
- 2 tablespoon olive oil plus more for serving
- 1 tbsp salt
- 2 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon celery seed
- ½ teaspoon black pepper plus more for serving
- 1 cup mint leaves
- 1 lemon juiced
- ½ cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Bring the water to a boil in a large sauce pan or soup pot. Add the courgette (zucchini), peas, salt, sugar, black pepper, and olive oil. Simmer uncovered at medium-low heat for about 10 minutes, or until the courgette are fork tender.
- Next, add the mint and then blend the soup with a stick blender until very smooth, at least 3-5 minutes.
- Finish by adding the squeezed lemon juice and heavy cream. Taste and adjust for salt. Serve with some freshly cracked black pepper and a drizzle of olive oil.
Notes
- Celery seed is my soup making secret weapon! It adds that little hint of flavor that makes everyone wonder what makes this soup so good.
- This dish is very good served chilled or lukewarm and stores in the fridge well for a few days, great for party prep.
