Provided by Carla Lalli Music

Categories     Bon Appétit     Dinner     Soup/Stew     Pea     Coconut     Seed     Healthy     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Vegetarian     Vegan

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 18

Soup:
2 tablespoons coconut, olive, or vegetable oil
1 medium red onion, chopped
4 large carrots, scrubbed, chopped
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
2 teaspoons Madras curry powder
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
12 ounces yellow split peas
6 cups chicken stock, low-sodium chicken broth, or water
Coconut and assembly:
1/2 teaspoon coriander seeds
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
2 teaspoons coconut, olive, or vegetable oil
1/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
Kosher salt
Cilantro leaves (for serving)

Steps:

  • Soup:
  • Heat a large heavy pot over medium and pour in oil. Add onion and carrots, season with a five-finger pinch of salt, and cook, stirring often, until vegetables are very tender and just taking on a hint of color at the edges, about 5 minutes. Lightly crush fennel seeds with a mortar and pestle, or roughly chop them. Add fennel seeds, curry, and mustard seeds to pot and cook, stirring, until fragrant (the mustard seeds may begin to pop), less than a minute. Add split peas, stir to coat, then add stock and 4 cups water. Increase heat and bring to a boil, then simmer, stirring occasionally and adding more water if soup looks too thick, until split peas are very tender and some are starting to disintegrate, 50-55 minutes.
  • Mash soup with a potato masher until split peas are in small pieces and soup is textured but creamy (if you prefer a smoother soup, use an immersion blender directly in the pot). Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt.
  • Coconut and assembly:
  • While the soup is simmering, lightly crush coriander, fennel, and mustard seeds.
  • Heat oil in a small skillet over medium and cook coconut flakes and spices, stirring constantly, until spices are sizzling and coconut is golden brown, about 1 minute. Transfer to a plate, season with salt, and let cool (coconut will crisp as it cools).
  • Serve soup topped with spiced coconut and cilantro.

YELLOW SPLIT PEA SOUP--VEGETARIAN/VEGAN



Yellow Split Pea Soup--Vegetarian/Vegan image

This is from a veg cookbook purchased on the checkout lane at the grocery store but I'm not sure which. It is a lovely soup, and it gets better over a day or so. The ingredient list appears lengthy, but it is largely due to the yummy combination of spices. The original recipe calls for a combination of any veggies as long as you reach 4 cups (or a 16 oz bag of frozen veggies). I list specific veggies here as they are the ones recommended in the recipe.

Provided by smellyvegetarian

Categories     Vegan

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 cups water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup yellow split peas (dry)
1 cup green beans
1 cup cauliflower
1 cup broccoli
1 cup carrot
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • In a medium pan bring water and salt to a boil; add split peas and return to boiling. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, about 45 minutes or until tender. Do not drain.
  • Meanwhile, steam vegetables until crisp tender.
  • In a small skillet, cook curry powder, cumin, turmeric, ginger, and red pepper in hot oil for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant.
  • In a food processor or blender combine the undrained split peas and the spice mixture. Process until combined. If too thick, add water or warm broth. Transfer back to the medium saucepan and stir in the steamed vegetables. Heat through and serve.
  • FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH--I highly recommend just leaving the split peas in the pan, adding spices, and using an immersion blender! Much simpler, and fewer dishes to wash :).

YELLOW SPLIT PEA SOUP WITH SPICED YOGURT



Yellow Split Pea Soup With Spiced Yogurt image

From the Williams-Sonoma Beans and Rice cookbook. While the yogurt sauce is good, we prefer it without. Instead, we just use a large amount of cilantro. This mildly gingery soup is best when served hot, but it is also good chilled. The distinctive yogurt topping is similar to Indian raita, a blend of yogurt and various spices.

Provided by OliveLover

Categories     Beans

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups yellow split peas
3 tablespoons butter

1/8 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon ground coriander
salt & freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons cilantro, chopped (fresh coriander)

Steps:

  • Pick over and discard any damaged peas or stones. Rinse the peas. Drain.
  • In a soup pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and carrot and saute, stirring, until the vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes. Add the ginger and stock or water and the rinsed peas. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer gently until the peas are completely soft, 45-60 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and let cool slightly. Use a blender, food processor or hand blender to puree until smooth. Thin with water or stock, if necessary. Season with salt and pepper.

  • 3. Dice the ham . Add to the pot, with all the other ingredients. Cover and cook on high about 3 hours. If you need more liquid, add 1 can of chicken broth.
  • 4. Serve with crusty bread, rye bread or crackers, I like Kavli, 5 whole grain, Crispbreasd. It is imported from Norway. See picture.
  • 5. Set the butter out for crackers, etc. sprinkle with a little parsley and serve this wonderful soup. Adding salt depends on how salty your ham is. You can decide, after a taste.
  • 6. Picture of the Kitchen Divas, salt & pepper shakers I won at our Red Hat Luncheon. They are such cute little piggy's, with the red hats on.!

YELLOW SPLIT PEA SOUP WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS



Yellow Split Pea Soup With Caramelized Onions image

I cut this out of the Vancouver Sun newspaper years ago. The article said they developed it in their test kitchen. It quickly became a family favourite. The caramelization of the onions and carrots takes some time but other than that, it is a breeze to make and very yummy. The pepper doesn't make any heat that we can detect but it might be spicy for some people. Healthy too!

Time 1h50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons olive oil
2 onions, halved lengthwise and sliced
2 large carrots, diced finely
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
1 serrano peppers or 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
2 cups yellow split peas, rinsed
8 cups broth (I use chicken but ham is good too)
salt and pepper
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add onions and carrots and cook for about 60 minutes or until golden brown, stirring frequently. Do not let burn. Add the garlic, curry powder, ginger and serrano pepper. Cook five minutes and set aside.
  • In another large pan combine peas and broth. Bring to a boil and simmer for about an hour or until peas are tender.
  • Process in a blender until smooth or use an immersion blender. (I often skip this.).
  • Stir onion mixture into the soup and add salt and pepper to taste. Stir in cilantro if using but I usually don't bother. It's good either way.

Tips:

  • Soak the split peas overnight: Soaking the split peas overnight helps to soften them and reduce the cooking time. If you don't have time to soak them overnight, you can quick-soak them by boiling them for 1 minute, then removing them from the heat and letting them sit for 1 hour.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for carrots, celery, and onions, but you can use any vegetables you like. Some other good options include potatoes, turnips, parsnips, and leeks.
  • Don't overcook the split peas: Split peas are done cooking when they are soft but still hold their shape. Overcooking them will make them mushy.
  • Season the soup to taste: This recipe calls for a simple seasoning of salt and pepper, but you can add other seasonings to taste. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cumin.
  • Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for yellow split pea soup include croutons, bacon bits, and shredded cheese.

Conclusion:

Yellow split pea soup is a delicious, hearty, and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and nutritious meal that the whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a comforting and satisfying soup, give this yellow split pea soup a try. You won't be disappointed!
