Mushy peas
About this recipe: Frozen peas retain their nutrients much more than tinned, and they taste fresh and delicious. You can add more liquid (water or cream) depending how mushy you want your peas. Use semi-skimmed milk if you're watching your calories.

Took shortcuts. I used a hand held potato masher and it was much easier. The peas mashed up rather nicely too! - 19 Jan 2011
Altered ingredient amounts. We added a dash of Matouks Calypso sauce and 4 chopped spring onions just before blending. Yummmmmm - 04 Mar 2010
