Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp butter
4 oz smoked back bacon, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped
1/2 cup split peas
5 cups chicken stock
2 slices firm bread, buttered and crusts removed
2 slices streaky bacon
salt and pepper

Directions:

Heat the butter in a saucepan and cook the back bacon until the fat runs.
Stir in the onion, carrot and celery and cook for 2-3 minutes.
Add the split peas and then the stock. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, then cover with a tight fitting lid and simmer for 45-60 minutes.
Meanwhile preheat the oven to 350*. Bake the bread for about 20 minutes, until crisp and brown, and then cut into a dice.
Grill the streaky bacon until very crisp, then chop finely.
When the soup is ready, season to taste and serve hot with the chopped bacon and croutons.
