Preparing the Vegetables

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion, sliced carrots, and celery. Cook until vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.

Sautéing Garlic and Seasonings

Add minced garlic, dried thyme, and rosemary to the vegetables. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant, stirring constantly.

Incorporating Cream and Peas

Stir in heavy cream and frozen peas. Let the soup simmer for an additional 5 minutes until heated through. Adjust seasoning as needed.
