50g butter
3 leeks roughly chopped
250g frozen peas
500ml vegetable stock
Small bunch of parsley, finely chopped
freshly ground black pepper & sea salt
3 tablespoons fresh white crab meat
Olive oil (for serving)

Instructions:
1. Melt the butter in saucepan on a medium heat, and add the leeks to soften (but not colour)
2. Add in the frozen peas, vegetable stock and simmer for 5 minutes
3. Remove from the heat and add in the parsley
4. Season well and either transfer the contents in to a food blender (blend for 5 minutes) or use a hand blender to blitz for 5 minutes
