Yield Makes about 3 cups, serving 4 as a first course

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1 small onion
3/4 cup chicken broth
1 1/2 cups water
a 10-ounce package frozen peas
1 teaspoon coarse salt

Steps:

  • In a dry small heavy skillet toast cumin seeds over moderate heat, shaking skillet frequently, until a shade darker and fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes, and cool. With a mortar and pestle or in an electric coffee/spice grinder finely grind seeds.
  • Finely chop onion and in a 2-quart saucepan simmer onion in broth and water until soft. Add peas, half of cumin, and half of salt and simmer, uncovered, until peas are tender, about 5 minutes. In a blender purée soup in 2 batches until smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids) and transfer to another saucepan.
  • In a small bowl stir together remaining cumin and salt to use as garnish.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out really bland. I think I might have forgotten to add the cumin.

This soup was a bit too spicy for me, but it was still very good. I think next time I'll use less cumin.

I love this soup! It's so easy to make and it's always a hit with my family. I usually add a little bit of extra cumin and cayenne pepper to give it a little more spice.
