Preparation Steps
1
Finely chop the onion and garlic. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Sauté the onion until translucent.
2
Add the garlic and cook for another minute, being careful not to burn it.
3
Add the green peas to the saucepan, then pour in the vegetable broth. Season with salt and pepper.
4
Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the peas are tender.
5
Remove the soup from the heat and purée with an immersion blender until smooth. For an extra creamy texture, strain the soup through a fine-mesh sieve.
6
Stir in the heavy cream until well combined. Gently reheat the soup, but do not boil.
7
Serve the soup hot, garnished with fresh parsley and croutons, if desired.
