Moroccan Style Split Pea Soup


I found this recipe today at whole foods and thought it sounded intriguing. I made one change subbing 1 large onion for 2 leeks. I usually make pea soup with ham but this sounds delicious!!

Steps


Combine peas and water in a large pot , bring to a boil , reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes.
Add remaining ingredients and simmer 2-3 hours or until peas are soft and the soup thickens.

Ingredients


split peas, water, carrots, celery ribs, onion, garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, dried oregano, bay leaves, salt & freshly ground black pepper
