Green Pea Soup With Mint And Prosciutto Strips

Ingredients:

1 pack of fresh greeen peas
Bunch of fresh mint leaves, chopped
4 slices prosciutto ham
3-4 cups water
1/2 scallion, chopped
1/4 chicken bouillon cube
1 teaspoon butter
salt&pepper
*

The combination of pea and mint creates an unusual mix of tastes. This soup is a healthier option to the classical pea soup with ham and the mint gives it a fresh feel so it is a perfect meal for spring. Heat up the butter and add scallion, cook until soft and add the green peas. Pour water over the vegetables, add the chicken bouillon and cook for about 8 minutes. At the end, add the chopped mint leaves and season with salt and pepper. Mix with blender or immersion mixer. Decorate with prosciutto strips that were fried on a pan without any additional fat and hence became dried out.
Bon Appetit!
