1. Soften the Onion
In a large saucepan, melt the knob of butter over medium heat until it starts to foam lightly. Gently cook the chopped onion until it is soft but not browned, stirring occasionally.
2. Infuse the Potato
Add the diced potato to the saucepan with the onion, stirring to coat it well with the butter. Pour in the ham or pork stock and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook until the potato is tender.
3. Blend in Petit Pois
Add the frozen petit pois to the pot and return to a boil. Cook for a couple of minutes, just until the peas are warmed through.
4. Puree and Perfect
Take the saucepan off the heat and use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Fold in the diced ham and stir to combine well.
5. Present and Enjoy
Ladle the hot soup into bowls and serve immediately, basking in the harmonious blend of smoky ham and sweet peas.
