Heat oil or butter in a heavy-bottom Dutch oven or large ovenproof saucepan over medium-high heat

5

Turn off heat

6

Add broth and water

7

Cover the pot with a sheet of heavy-duty foil, pressing the foil down so it's concave and rests on the broth

Remembering that the handles are hot, set pot on low heat

Stir in 1 cup of Parmesan cheese, peas and/or parsley

15

Adjust seasonings, including salt and pepper, to taste

16

Spoon into shallow soup plates, sprinkling each serving with shaved Parmesan
