Ham and Pea Soup

Ham and Pea Soup

Ingredients

  • 1 pound or 2 cups dried peas or split peas
  • Ham bone with some meat still on
  • 1 large onion
  • 6 cups ham stock or water
  • seasoning

Instructions

Soak the peas as directed on the packet. Chop the onion and soften in a little oil or fat over a low heat. Add the peas and stock with the ham bone. Cook gently until the peas are soft - about an hour. Remove the bone and cut off any meat and dice. Set aside the ham pieces. Puree the peas in a blender or pass through a sieve. Adjust the seasoning. Add the diced ham and serve with a little cream or a sprinkling of chopped parsley on top.
