Split Pea Soup

1 tsp olive oil
2 cups onions, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
6 carrots, chopped

1/4 tsp black pepper
1 1/4 tsp curry powder
1 cup yellow split peas
1 cup green yellow split peas
7 cups vegetable broth (add more if needed) (6 cups if using a pressure cooker-I like my soups thick)

In a sauce pan, sauté the ingredients in one, over low heat and covered, until the onions are translucent. Add the rest of the ingredients and cook, covered, over medium heat, for approx. 1 1/2hrs or until the peas are tender (15 minutes if using a pressure cooker. Thanks mom!)
