Not to hate but this recipe is way better than Nigella's pea and pesto soup. This is creamy, delicious and full of the goodness of peas! Jamie keeps winning points with me...but I'm a tough one to turn so he's not won a permanent spot in my heart yet.
I made this recipe from my JO iphone app and learned a good lesson about the app. A lot of these recipes you can make either for 2 or 4 servings, and there is a button you can select for your ingredients list based on portion preference. I didn't know this previous to making the soup and found this out the hard way. That being, halfway thru making this soup I inadvertently hit the button changing serving requirements and couldn't figure out how I'd gotten all my portions wrong. Then somehow, don't ask me how, I managed to figure this out. Not before questioning my sanity though. This was my only little hiccup along the way, but now that I've figured this out I have to say it is a pretty cool little feature of the app. I mean once you know about it.
Anyhoo, back to the soup. Very easy to make, and incredibly delicious. I chose to omit the croutons but think they would be a great feature.But i quite enjoyed the soup less these few carbs. The feta really makes this and is great for presentation too. The mint in the recipe isn't a strong flavour either, it just lends a hint of freshness to the soup which I love. Jamie has done it again for me, and I think this recipe will do "it" for you too.
