  Do not burn the garlic!

  When green peas are tender, do not cook more because green peas lose them vibrant green colour.

Notes

Serve the green pea soup with linseeds, black sesames, crispy fried onions, soup pearls or croutons.

Coconut milk can be replaced with double cream, but creamy green pea soup is tastier if it is made with coconut milk.
