SPLIT PEA SOUP RECIPE

 

Ingredients:

1 lb. fresh asparagus,
1/2 lb. potatoes, peeled,
2 tablespoons chopped onion,
1 tablespoon chopped garlic,
1 1/2 litre chicken stock,
1 cup light cream,
1 teaspoon white vinegar,
1 tablespoon butter,
salt and pepper to taste.

Recipe: Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat, and saute the onion, smoked ham and garlic until the ham is lightly brown. Combine the sauteed ingredients with the remaining ingredients in a slow cooker. Cover with the lid and cook on low temperature until the split peas are tender, approximately 4-5 hours. When the split pea soup is ready, remove the bay leaves and the thyme sprig. Serve the split pea soup with warm crusty Italian bread on the side.
