Ingredients
- 2 leeks, woodiest part of the green leaves removed
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 pound frozen peas
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley

Directions
Halve, slice, wash the leeks well and drain. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the leeks and cook until softened but not brown, about 5 minutes. Add the peas and continue cooking until the peas are thawed and bright green, about 3 minutes. Transfer the peas and leeks to a blender along with the sour cream, salt, parsley, and lemon. Blend on low until smooth. Garnish with the scallions.
