Equipment

Method
 

  1. Leave 3-4 asparagus intact for garnish. Remove the very hard bottom part of asparagus stalk and chop the rest of it into small cylinders. You DONOT have to be perfect or cut them too small.
    Have the rest of your veggies chopped and ready too. Medium chunks are ok as we will cook them and blend them.
  2. In a soup pot, add 2-3 tbsp broth (or spray of oil if using), and once hot, add the garlic cloves. Follow it with onions, jalapeno pieces, pistachios. Saute for 2 min.
    Then add the green apple pieces, chopped celery stalks, asparagus. Let them cook for 4-5 min.
    Then add the frozen peas, and mint leaves. Mix well. Add about 1 cup broth at this stage and let the ingredients cook with lid on for 8 min.
    Now add the spices per your taste. I like to keep this one simple with just salt, pepper.
    Add a touch of lime juice.
  3. Now move all ingredients to blender and blitz into a smooth paste.
  4. Get the blended soup into the pot again. Add the rest of the broth to the pot.
    Let it simmer for 6-8 min.
  5. Serve it hot with roasted asparagus stalks and peas on the top. Yumm..!!
