Dutch Pea Soup (Erwtensoep)

Prep time 30 minutes
Cooking time 2 hours

You don’t need to search very long on the internet for recipes for ‘Old Dutch peasoup’. One makes it with a big piece of ham, another makes it with a leg of pork and so each has it’s own thing. But because we are increasingly depending on the supermarkets for our supplies instead of a proper butcher, you will find that a leg of pork is not so easy to find. So I chose to use pork cutlets instead.
