Step 1
Heat the 2 tbsp olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the 1 diced onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Add the 4 cups frozen peas and 3 cups vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until peas are tender, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Remove from heat and stir in the 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves. Blend with an immersion blender until smooth and bright green.
Step 4
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Ladle into bowls and swirl in the 1/2 cup heavy cream, dividing evenly.
