Pea & Horseradish Soup


Pea & Horseradish Soup
topped with freshly grated horseradish root

Using some of my leftover horseradish sauce I made this soup for lunch. Obviously you can use shop-bought horseradish sauce if you don't fancy foraging for it!

Recipe (Serves 2)
1 knob of butter
1 Onion, finely chopped
500ml Chicken or Vegetable Stock
400g Peas (I used frozen)
2-3 tbsp Horseradish Sauce
2-3 Dashes Tabasco Sauce
A couple of handfuls of Cooked King Prawns (optional)

Heat the butter in a saucepan and add the onions. Cook on a low heat for about 10 minutes until soft.

Add the stock and bring to the boil. Add the peas and simmer for a few minutes.

Remove from the heat and add the horseradish and tabasco. Blitz until the soup is nice and smooth.

To add a tasty protein kick, garnish with cooked King Prawns.

  1. I really love the idea of foraging for food! I'd just be worried I'd do an "into the wild" on myself ;) I'd quite like to get a wild food book.
