Step by step recipe of fresh green pea soup with photos.

Winters are best time of year when fresh green pea (also called matar in Urdu) that are sweeter, softer compared to frozen ones, are easily available. So make some soup to add this yummy vegetable to your diet. Children love boiled and salted green pea. Apart from soup you can add green peas to matar pulao and mixed vegetable curry.

Did you know green pea are actually fruit and not vegetables? They are seeds that grow from flowers. So they categorise as fruit. While vegetables are other part of plant, like leaves, bulb, root, stem and flower. Isn’t it interesting?

Green pea are great source of protein, anti-oxidants (good for immune system and anti ageing, Vitamin K (good for bones). They are great for heart and sugar regulation.

This Matar soup tastes yummy and unique. Color is not very tempting to be honest. For taste, I felt, it tastes great without cream as well as with cream. So cream is optional. The taste of soup is balanced and not sour or sweet. So if someone has sore throat or just feeling low. This soup can work like a medicine.

Notes
