\"minty<\/p>\n

The first time I had minty mushy peas was at a pub in Sydney. Served alongside a beefy pot\u00a0pie, the combo of mint and peas was bright and just a tiny bit sweet, making it a perfect match for the rich sauce in the pie. But the name just put a damper on the whole affair. Is\u00a0anything<\/em> mushy good? Meh.\u00a0So, we’re changing it up and\u00a0calling one my favorite spring side dishes Minty Smashed Peas.<\/p>\n

The original also teetered on the edge of pea paste, so I use a potato masher instead of a food processor to leave the peas identifable. There’s no big a-ha here, it’s more like a, “Why didn’t I think of that sooner?” in the form of a bag of frozen peas, mint, green onions and butter. \u00a0My one tweak is to add the mint at the end, rather than the beginning so it doesn’t turn black. \u00a0It’s a spring lifesaver when you’re waiting for the fresh peas to come in and it’s another side dish done in 15 minutes or less.<\/p>\n
