Ingredients
  

  • 400 g cod fillets, skinless and deboned
  • 200 g carrots, diced
  • 150 g frozen peas
  • 1 liter vegetable or fish stock
  • 150 g plain yogurt
  • 20 g fresh mint leaves, chopped
  • 10 g fresh dill, plus more for garnish
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges
  • to taste Salt and pepper
  • Crusty bread for serving optional

Equipment

  • Large pot
  • Chef's knife
  • Cutting board
  • Ladle
  • Large mixing bowl

Method
 

  1. Begin by preparing your ingredients. Dice the carrots, chop the onion, and cube the cod into bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes translucent.
  3. Add the diced carrots to the pot and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Pour in the vegetable or fish stock, bring to a simmer, and cook for 10 minutes until the carrots are tender.
  5. Gently add the cod pieces and frozen peas to the pot. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cod is opaque and easily flakes with a fork.
  6. In a mixing bowl, combine the plain yogurt, chopped mint, and dill. Stir well until blended.
  7. To serve, ladle the soup into bowls, topping each with a generous spoonful of the mint yogurt mixture. Garnish with additional dill if desired, and place a lemon wedge on the side for added brightness.
  8. The soup can be enjoyed immediately, but it also holds well if you wish to let the flavors meld for a few minutes.

Notes

Feel free to substitute the cod with other firm white fish, like haddock or tilapia, if preferred.
The soup can be made without the mint yogurt for a lighter option—just add a splash more lemon juice for brightness instead.
This soup stores well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; simply reheat gently on the stove before serving.
Enjoy experimenting with additional herbs or greens you've got on hand!
