My favourite Green Pea and Lettuce Soup

Sounds weird. Tastes delicious. Plenty of black pepper and lemon juice are essential ingredients.

1 1/2 cups frozen peas

2 medium sliced potatoes

2 medium brown onions, sliced

1 iceberg lettuce, roughly chopped

750mL of good strong chicken stock

1 bunch chives, chopped, plus extra to serve

300mL cream

Juice of 1-2 lemons

Salt and pepper

Place all ingredients up to and including the chives in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 mins or until the potato is tender.

Puree with a stick blender until smooth. Add the cream off the heat. Season very well and carefully with salt, pepper and lemon juice. Taste continually until extra lemony and delicious.

Sprinkle with chopped chives and extra pepper to serve.
