This soup is easy to make and requires very little cooking, which means the
vegetables stay fresh-tasting and flavorful. The first peas of the season
would be the best choice, but frozen peas are an excellent alternative.
Accompany this soup with Melba toasts.

In large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion, garlic and carrot
and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft and beginning to
brown, about 10 minutes.

Add peas and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add hot broth and bring to boil.
Cook 1 minute. Stir in lettuce, salt and pepper. Serve hot with lemon
wedges to squeeze into each portion.
