Ingredients

• 50g leeks or 1 onion
• 2 medium carrots (about 260g total), peeled and finely chopped
• 2 cans peas

Method

1. Heat saucepan and fry leeks until vibrant. Add the carrots and smoked shoulder ham and toss lightly. Remove one third of the ham and set aside.
2. Add split peas and stock to the saucepan. Turn heat to medium and reduce slightly, mashing the peas and carrots as you go.

4. Garnish with ham and enjoy!
