First cut off some ham meat from the ham-hocks. Slice thinly is better.
Then put the bones, fats, half the onions and garlic (your choice of amount) and simmer for a good hour for nice stock. You can use the stock now or save to make the soup another day.
In a pot, fry some onions, garlic and cubed potatoes with a lump of butter.
Add your pre prepared stock in and bring to boil. Simmer for a bit till the potatoes are soft then add in the green peas. Save some green peas for garnishing.
Bring to boil then turn off heat immediately.
Blend the soup and add in most of the sliced ham saving some again for garnishing.
Serve drizzle with double cream and crusty bread or toasts.
Notes
Note - It is such a simple soup but taste good. Once you have made this you will not go back to the packet or tins if possible. kekekekeke
