Instructions: Wash peas and soak them overnight in cold water, or in hot water for one hour. Drain them and set aside.

Heat the butter in a saucepan and saute the onion until light brown. Add the carrots and turnip and continue cooking 5 mins. Add the peas and veg stock, and stir well. Cover the pan, bring to a boil, and simmer 1 - 1 1/2 hours until the peas are really tender. Stir occasionally, and add water if necessary.

Season to taste.
