Pea Soup with Coconut Cream and Basil

Rating: Unrated

This soup is superquick to prepare. Serve at room temperature, or let it chill for an hour while you go about your day. Because coconut milk thickens when chilled, allow the soup to sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before serving, and stir well before pouring into bowls.
