Soup week on Nova 103.5 with Metro Supermarket Eros is officially underway!
The challenge was set – can you make soup for 4 people on a budget of N$100! #nam100dollarchallenge
The Nova 103.5 team visited Metro Supermarket Eros – bought their ingredients on the N$100 budget and came up with the following recipes!
Day 4 – Ham & Pea Soup
Creamy, smoky, and oh-so-satisfying—this hearty bowl of pea and ham goodness is exactly what chilly evenings call for!
Ingredients:
-
½ cup Split Peas (well rinsed)
-
2 Medium Potatoes
-
2 Cloves Garlic
-
½ Diced Onion
-
6 Cups Chicken Stock
-
¾ cup Milk
-
100g Farm Smoked Ham
-
Salt & Pepper to taste
Instructions:
-
In a large pot, lightly sauté the onion and garlic in a splash of oil until soft and fragrant.
-
Add in the rinsed split peas, chopped potatoes, and all of the chicken stock.
-
Pop the lid on and bring it to a gentle boil, then let it cook until the peas and potatoes are tender—around 30–40 minutes.
-
Once everything’s soft, blend the soup using a stick blender until nice and smooth.
-
Stir in the milk and smoked ham, season with salt and pepper, and let it warm through.
-
Dish it up, grab a spoon, and enjoy that smoky, creamy comfort!
Optional: Serve with crusty bread or sprinkle some extra ham on top for a little extra flair.
