COURGETTE AND PEA SOUP
Another one of my out of the blue health conscious days and there were courgettes in the fridge. Usually a cold cucumber soup would sound good, but on a rainy cold day this warm soup seemed a better option.
This is what you’ll need
Butter: 2tbsp
Courgettes: 2 (cubed)
Onions: 2 (small)
Peas: 250gms

2. Add the finely chopped onions along with salt. Cover and cook until soft.
3. Add the chopped courgettes and the garlic. Fry for a couple of minutes.
4. Add the vegetable stock, peas and coriander leaves.
5. Cover and let it cook for around 10 minutes, or until the peas are soft.
