Our Summer is on vacation in the moment. It is wet and cool this week.
I had a head of lettuce in the fridge and frozen peas. I decided to use up lots of stuff in my fridge and prepare a soup.
For some basic taste I used Black Forst ham cubes, onion, leek, garlic and chili. Butter and oil heated up and all this stuff went in. I took a couple of minutes until the onion is translucent.
Next the defrosted peas went in and the veg stock. Cooking for 3 more minutes. To stabilize the soup, 2 tbsp of semolina.
I took the cream out of the fridge and saw the small bowl with two cooked potatoes in. A good chance to get rid of them in the soup.
The washed and ripped to pieces lettuce went in next. It looked like a mountain of green in the pot. But like spinach it goes down to a small amount after some time in the hot soup.
Cook again 3 min and taste the soup if the seasoning is good. Use a stick blender and mix the soup.
I sprinkled garlic breadcrumbs on top.
