  • Heat a pot over medium heat and add the olive oil. Put the onion and garlic until they are translucent, about 15 minutes. Put salt, pepper and oregano.
  • Add carrots, potatoes, ¼ kilo of peas and chicken broth. Wait for it to boil, lower the heat and let cook uncovered, about 40 minutes. (Remove the foam that is forming).
  • Add the rest of the peas (1/4 kilo) and cook another 40 minutes (or until the pea are soft). Move constantly to avoid burning the vegetables.
  • Season with salt and pepper if necessary and serve hot.
