This vibrant green pea soup with tarragon and pea sprouts is a celebration of fresh, herbaceous flavours. By using frozen petite peas, you can enjoy a bright, sweet taste all year round, perfectly complemented by the aniseed notes of fresh tarragon. The shallots provide a delicate savoury base, resulting in a silky smooth texture that feels indulgent while remaining light and healthy. It is a wonderful choice for a spring lunch or a sophisticated starter for a dinner party.
As a nutritious vegetarian dish, this soup is packed with plant-based protein and fibre. The addition of a cooling yoghurt drizzle and crunchy pea sprouts adds a lovely contrast in texture and temperature. Serve this homemade soup with a slice of crusty sourdough or soda bread for a comforting, balanced meal that is as pleasing to the eye as it is to the palate.

How to make Green Pea Soup with Tarragon and Pea Sprouts
Place 240ml peas in microwave-safe bowl; set aside. Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add shallots and sauté until golden and almost tender, about 7 minutes. Add remaining peas, 950ml broth, and 2 tablespoons tarragon; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium and boil until flavours blend and peas are tender, about 7 minutes. Cool slightly. Working in batches, puree soup in blender until completely smooth. Return soup to same saucepan. Bring to simmer and thin with more broth by 60ml fuls, if desired. Stir in remaining 1 tablespoon tarragon. Season with pepper.
Cook reserved 240ml peas in microwave until warm, about 1 minute.
Ladle soup into 6 bowls. Drizzle lightly with yoghurt. Sprinkle whole peas over and garnish with pea sprouts.
