Instructions

  1. Melt 2 tablespoon Butter in a pan. Add 4 Spring onions (Scallions) and cook over a low heat for 2 minutes.
  2. Add 330 g Frozen peas and 2 tablespoon Fresh mint. Mix well.
  3. Add enough boiled water to cover all the peas. Put a lid on the pan and return to the heat for 2-3 minutes.
  4. Drain the peas. Add 1 pinch Sea salt, 1 pinch Ground black pepper, juice and zest of 0.5 Lemon, 1 tablespoon Olive oil and 1 tablespoon Fresh mint. Mix well and serve.

Notes

  • Don't add salt to peas when cooking, as this can actually toughen them up. Instead, add the salt just before serving.
  • Don't use canned peas, as these will go mushy when cooked.
  • If you use dried mint, then you will need less as it has a more intense flavour.
