Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Frozen peas
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 10 leaves Fresh mint leaves
- 1 clove Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Place the frozen peas in a medium-sized saucepan and add 2 tablespoons of water.
Peel and smash the garlic clove to release its flavors.
Add the smashed garlic to the saucepan with the peas and cook over medium heat until the peas are tender and heated through, about 5 minutes.
Drain the peas and garlic, then transfer to a food processor.
Add the butter, fresh mint leaves, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the peas in the food processor.
Pulse the mixture until smooth and creamy. If the mash is too thick, add a little more water, a teaspoon at a time, and pulse again until the desired consistency is achieved.
Taste the pea mash and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Transfer the pea mash to a serving bowl and serve warm as a side dish or a delicious dip.
