Split Pea Soup Vegetarian Easy Recipes

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium high heat, saute the oil, onion, bay leaf and garlic for 5 minutes, or until onions are translucent. Add the peas, barley, salt and water. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
• Add the carrots, celery, potatoes, parsley, basil, thyme and ground black pepper. Simmer for another hour, or until the peas and vegetables are tender.

Steps:

• Inspect peas, discarding any stones, foreign matter, or unattractive peas. Place peas in a fine mesh strainer and rinse under cold running water to remove pea dust.
• Transfer drained peas into a pot with a lid and a heavy, heat-diffusing bottom. Add water, onion, celery, ketchup, olive oil, salt, garlic, and bay leaves. Cover and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to a very slow simmer. Cook, stirring and scraping the bottom every 7 to 12 minutes, until peas have largely fallen apart, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Stir carrots into the soup. Cook, covered, stirring often, until peas are completely dissolved and soup is thick, about 1 1/2 hours more. Remove and discard bay leaves. Season with pepper.

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, combine all ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours or until peas and vegetables are tender.

Steps:

• Rinse and pick through peas to remove any unpleasant bits.
• Bring 2 cans vegetable broth to boil in large saucepan.
• Meanwhile, sauté onion in butter until just translucent, not soft.
• Add split peas and cooked onion to broth. Cook about 1 hour till peas are very tender, adding more vegetable broth as needed. You do not want too much broth.
• In a separate pan, cook carrots in water till tender. Chop into fine pieces.
• When split pea mixture is soft, purée in a blender or food processor till it is creamy and smooth.
• Return to pan and add finely chopped carrots.
• Heat through and serve. Soup should be very thick and creamy.

Steps:

• Place first 5 ingredients in a large pot.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer, partially covered for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent split peas from sticking to bottom of pot.
• Add onions, garlic, celery, carrots and potato. (You can saute these first or add them in directly if you want a fat free soup).
• Partially cover and allow to simmer for about 40 minutes, stirring occasionally.(You may need to add extra water).
• Season to taste with pepper and vinegar.
• Serve with a drizzle of sesame oil, diced tomato and minced parsley.
