2 Tbsp butter

1 large onion chopped

1 small head of lettuce, shredded

2 lb thawed frozen petit pois peas

2.5 pt (I.5 L) chicken or vegetable stock

Lots of chopped fresh mint (to taste)

salt / pepper (to taste)

6 fl oz (175mL) whipping cream

In a large pot melt butter, and cook onion until it is browned slightly

Stir in lettuce, peas & mint

Add stock, boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 15 min

Blend until smooth (I used a little hand held blender in the pot, you can pour it into a blender then back in the pot) season to taste (back in the pot) stir in cream & reheat gently (when adding the whipping cream make sure it is not too cold as it will curdle)
