Pea and Pesto Soup

Photobucket

I don't think there is a soup out there that requires less ingredients and less time than this one. It is a Nigella Express recipe again, that I initially saw on TV. It's that episode when she talks to the peas saying: "my babies, prepare to meet your maker!" :)

I used:

- 600g frozen peas
- 50g pesto
- 1 tsp lime juice
- 2 scallions
- 0.7l water

I brought the water to boil. When it starts boiling, add the peas, scallions, lime juice and salt and let everything bubble for 7 minutes.

Pour everything in the blender, including the water, and add the pesto. Mix all together and it's done!

It is very creamy, sweet-sour and incredibly filling!
