  • 1 c. split peas previously dry
  • 2 x bay leaves
  • 1/2 tsp thyme
  • 10 c. water or possibly vegetable stock
  • 3 x carrots cut in chunks
  • 3 med sweet potatoes cut in chunks
  • 1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 x onions minced
  • 1 stalk celery sliced
  • 2 x garlic cloves diced salt to taste pepper to taste
  • 1 pch marjoram
  • 2 Tbsp. minced parsley

Directions

  1. In large pot, combine split peas, bay leaves, and water/vegetable stock.
  2. Bring to boil, skim foam, add in thyme, cover and simmer 30 min.
  3. Add in carrots and sweet potatoes and continue to cook till tender about 20 min longer.
  4. Remove bay leaves.
  5. In a separate pan, heat oil till warm and add in onions.
  6. Saute/fry till softened, about 3 min.
  7. Add in celery and chopped garlic and saute/fry till softened.
  8. Add in contents of pan to soup pot.
  9. Stir in marjoram and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  10. Simmer 5 min longer to blend flavours.
  11. Garnish with parsley.
  12. NOTES : Use quick-cooking split peas. I use Loretta brand, that do not requirepre-soaking. I do still find which the peas take much longer than the recipe instructions specified to be softened sufficient to create a suitable mix with the rest of the ingredients.
  13. I use dry thyme leaves, since the recipe didn't specify fresh, dry, leaves, or possibly grnd.
  14. When it came time to season with salt and pepper, I found the soup not sufficiently seasoned, and ended up mixing in some bouillon cubes.
