Step 1
Take a saucepan, add peas to it, and pour in cold drinking water. Place the saucepan on the stove and bring the liquid to a boil. Then reduce the heat. Cook the peas until fully done, so they become soft but do not fall apart. Add diced potatoes to the peas and cook for another fifteen minutes.

Step 2
While the peas and potatoes are boiling on the stove, you need to prepare all the other vegetables. Peel the carrots and celery and cut them into thin strips. Heat a frying pan over medium heat with vegetable oil, add the chopped celery and carrots, and sauté for five minutes. Then add the peeled and sliced onion, and sauté for another five minutes.

Add bay leaf to the soup, and salt again if necessary. If too much liquid has evaporated during cooking, add a little more boiled drinking water. Add chopped washed greens to the soup, boil covered for another five minutes, turn off the heat, cover with a lid, and let the soup steep for half an hour.
