A delicious and healthy Pea & Ham soup.
Combine stocks and diced ham in a large saucepan and bring to the boil. Simmer for 30 mins to an hour, as time permits.
Remove ham pieces from stock with slotted spoon and set aside.
Add onion, sage and split peas to stock and return to the boil. Simmer until peas are softened (approx 30-45mins).
Meanwhile use a fork or potato masher to break up the ham pieces slightly.
Once the peas are softened, remove from heat and process with a Bamix until thick and almost completely smooth. Be careful of overprocessing and losing "texture".
Return soup to heat and add carrot and ham. Simmer until carrot is cooked.
Add water and season to taste -- Serve!
Note: This soup is naturally very salty so use low sodium stocks where possible and avoid adding salt when seasoning. The adding of water will help reduce this if you find the end result too salty.
