and cook 1 minute until its aroma is released. Add the potatoes and saute 5

and simmer gently 25 minutes until potatoes are soft. Add the peas and cook

Comments: In Portugal, this soup is often made with fresh fava beans. Use
them if you can find them. Mint (horteln) grows abundantly in Portugal and
is widely used in savory dishes, frequently in combination with coriander
(coentro).
