Fresh Pea Soup With Mint

1 pound green peas, freshly shelled
2 tablespoons butter
1 medium-size onion, chopped
1 head iceberg lettuce, chopped
1 sprig mint, chopped
1 sprig parsely, chopped
3 strips bacon, chopped
2-1/2 cups ham stock
Salt and pepper, to taste
Chopped parsley and mint, for garnish

After shelling the peas, save the pods, wash them and put them to boil in the ham stock while preparing the soup.

Heat the butter in a large saucepan and soften the onion in it, then add the lettuce, mint and parsley.

De-rind and chop the bacon. Fry it for about 2 minutes, turning it from time to time; add to the saucepan with the peas, salt, pepper, and a small amount of sugar.

Strain the stock and add. Bring to the boil, stirring, then simmer for about half an hour until the peas are quite soft. Sieve or liquidize, taste for seasonings and add a little milk or cream, if needed (but not too much, for the fresh flavor must be preserved). Garnish with chopped parsley or mint.

Makes 6 servings

Irish Pumpkin Potage
My mother has served this potage since I can remember and
   everybody raves about it! The only thing is that you may have
   blistered hands after cutting the fresh pumpkin, so you may want
   to have some gloves available. Have fun! Makes 6 to 7
   servings. 

 
3 pounds peeled, seeded and
   diced sugar pumpkin
2 leeks, chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup olive oil
6 cups chicken stock
4 1/2 cups milk
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon Hungarian sweet paprika
1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Directions
1 Halve the pumpkin and scrape out the seeds and pith.
   Cut into 1 inch pieces.
2 In a large skillet, saute the pumpkin, leeks, onion and
   garlic in olive oil. Add chicken stock and bring to a simmer.
3 Strain vegetables, place in food processor and blend
   until smooth. Transfer puree to pot or crock pot; add enough
   milk to reach smooth consistency.
4 Add the cayenne pepper, paprika, ground pepper and
   nutmeg; simmer for 30 minutes and do not allow to boil.
