Turnip, Carrot, & Split Pea Soup

Directions

Wash peas and soak them overnight in cold water, or in hot water for one hour.

Drain them and set aside.

Heat the butter in a saucepan and sauté the onion until light brown.

Add the carrots and turnip and continue cooking 5 mins.

Add the peas and veg stock, and stir well.

Cover the pan, bring to a boil, and simmer 1 to 1½ hours until the peas are really tender.

Stir occasionally, and add water if necessary.

Season to taste.
