Instant Pot Frozen Soup Recipe
Instant Pot Frozen Pea Soup Recipe with aromatic vegetables and a hint of white wine. Ready in less than 30 minutes - perfect for busy days.
Equipment
- 8 qrt Instant Pot
- Immersion blender
Ingredients
- 300 g frozen peas
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup finely diced carrots
- 1 leek white part, sliced
- 1 medium onion chopped
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 30 ml dry white wine
- 70 g bacon diced (optional)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Using the sauté function, fry the bacon until golden and crispy. If skipping bacon, proceed to the next step.
- To the bacon fat (or add olive oil if not using bacon), add onion, carrot, and leek. Sauté until softened. Add garlic and sauté briefly. Pour in the white wine and cook until the alcohol evaporates.
- Add frozen peas and half of the amount of vegetable broth ( so add only 2 cups)
- Cancel the sauté function, close the lid, and cook on high pressure for 6 minutes.
- Manually release the pressure, then blend until smooth. Gradually add more broth until you achieve your preferred consistency.
- Adjust salt, season with pepper, and serve. If using, sprinkle bacon on top for an extra layer of flavor.
Notes
- Additional Notes: I used a stick blender because well.... I am lazy. But, if you really want to have a smooth soup, and I recommend using a regular blender as I think it does a better job.
