Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups dried split peas
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 1 celery stalk, diced
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Instructions

  • Rinse the split peas under cold water in a fine-mesh sieve. If you choose to soak them, do so for at least 2 hours.
  • In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
  • Incorporate diced carrots and celery, cooking for an additional 5 minutes.
  • Add the rinsed split peas, vegetable broth, and thyme to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer uncovered for 30–40 minutes.
  • For a creamier texture, use an immersion blender to blend a portion of the soup until smooth.
  • Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
  • Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh herbs or a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
