Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 cups around 250 grams fresh or frozen peas
  • 5 mint leaves roughly chopped
  • 4 tablespoons water (more if required)
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice (more if required)

Instructions

  • In a medium pan, add water to boil. Add the peas. Cover it and steam for 3-5 minutes. Let it cool slightly.
  • Add peas and mint leaves to a blender or food processor and blend for 1 minute or until you get the right consistency. If puree is too thick, add water to achieve desired texture.
  • Add the lemon juice to the puree. 
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a silky smooth puree always pour the blended puree into a fine sieve and with the help of the back of a spoon press it thoroughly. 
  • Make sure not to overcook the peas. Once boiled, immediately add them to a bowl of ice water.  
  • You can store this puree in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and can be frozen for up to 3 months
