There are two versions of Dutch pea soup. The winter variety is thick, hearty and usually served as a one-pot meal. In contrast, chef Geert Elzinga shows us the summer version which includes fresh peas to create a deliciously light dish.
Ingredients
400g fresh peas1L chicken stock
1 kohlrabi
1 small leek
Salt and pepper, to taste
Preparation
Blanch the peas.Cook the peas (set some aside for decoration) in the chicken stock for 10 minutes.
Once cooked, remove peas from the stock and puree in a food processor.
Finely slice the kohlrabi (brunoise) and add this to the soup.
Cook for another minute before adding the finely sliced leek.
Cook the soup for a further minute.
Season with salt and pepper.

Hot Tips
Bubble and Squeak
Incorporate cold leftover vegetables from a previous meal (traditionally the Sunday roast) into bubble and squeak. Chop vegetables (and cold chopped meat if you have it) and combine with mashed potato. Fry the fritters until the mixture is well-cooked and brown on the sides.
