Pea soup

Prepare a vegetable stock.
Julienne the onion, sauté into a saucepan with extra virgin olive oil. Add peas and let them develop a richer flavour for a few minutes.
Fill with vegetable stock and cook for about 10 minutes. Season to taste.
Use a hand blender to mix until creamy. If the mixture is too thick, add more vegetable stock.

Orange flavoured ricotta

Put ricotta cheese into a bowl.
Season with salt and pepper and gradually pour orange juice on it.
Mix the ingredients.
Let it rest for a few minutes in the fridge.

Crispy Prawns

Heat oil into a frying pan. Flour prawns and remove flour in excess.
Once oil is hot enough, deep-fry prawns until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.
Take a soup plate, and fill with pea soup.
Top with a quenelle of ricotta cheese (food item made into oval or egg shape) and crispy prawns.
Drizzle a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil on top of each serving. Your pea soup, crispy prawns and orange-flavoured ricotta dish is now ready to serve!
