Slow Cooker Pea & Ham Soup

It’s 6am and I’ve just woken up to a house which smells incredible. It may not be breakfast food but I’m looking forward to lunch let me tell you.

I cooked two gammon joints last week in my Sous Vide Supreme.. One in We

I put my ingredients into the slow cooker at about 9.30pm last night and just set on low and walked away – how easy is that?

This morning I woke to perfectly cooked veggies, ham and a gorgeous broth. When I’m ready to serve it will probably blend it up as I love pea and ham soup this way..maybe even with a swirl of cream on top, some cracked black pepper and freshly baked soda bread.

Also apologies for the ingredients being in cups.. I was being rather lazy last night and used a cup for measurements so that I could share the recipe afterwards without the faff of weighing.

Slow Cooker Pea & Ham Soup

You will need:

2 cups ( packed) of cooked shredded ham/gammon
1 cup of frozen peas
3.5 cups of hot chicken stock
9-10 small new potatoes halved
1 carrot diced
Dried parsley
Pepper
Salt ( if required – I didn’t use any as gammon is salty enough)

Put all ingredients into the slow cooker and give a little stir.

Turn onto low for 10 hours or high for 5. Blend before serve for ultimate flavour and creaminess. Extra good with a little cream on top and served with still warm bread.

Yum.

Perfect for a chilly autumnal day.
