Ingredients

1 onion, chopped
3 tablespoons (45 ml) butter
4 cups (1 L) milk
6 cups (1.5 L) frozen sweet peas (about 900g)
Salt and pepper

Garnish

4 radishes, cut into thin wedges
1/2 cup (125 ml) frozen sweet peas, thawed
2 tablespoons (30 ml) fresh basil, finely chopped
1/2 cup (125 ml) Mediterranean plain yogurt

Preparation

In a saucepan, soften the onion in 30 ml (2 tablespoons) of butter over medium heat until translucent. Add the milk and peas. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently to prevent the milk from scorching the bottom of the pan. Simmer on low heat for 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
In a blender, purée the mixture until smooth, then strain. Adjust the seasoning. Keep warm.

Garnish

In a skillet, soften the radishes and peas in the remaining butter. Remove from the heat. Add the basil, 5 ml (1 teaspoon) of water and stir to cool the topping. Season with salt and pepper.
Pour the soup into warm bowls and top each bowl with a dollop of yogurt, then garnish with the radishes. Season with pepper and serve.
