So many of you have been waiting for Brian to recreate some of the dishes we had on our trip to England, and the wait is over… kind of! Brian has been working on several of these, and first up are his Minty & Spicy Peas, inspired by the Macho Peas we had at Nando’s in London.
If you remember, he actually enjoyed the peas at Nando’s so much, that when Martin The Great Potato Mage and I challenged him to cook us a meal in Nottingham, he started working on recreating them there! They were a part of the delicious meal he served us, and I’m so excited he was able to re-capture that at home.
The ingredients for this one are quite simple: peas, fresh mint, fresh parsley, garlic, liquid aminos (or low sodium soy sauce) and red pepper flakes.
I love the use of fresh herbs in this dish – especially the mint!
For the peas, you can use frozen, canned or even fresh. Brian has tried all three and prefers the frozen.
I hope you give this one a try and we can’t wait to share more recipes inspired by our trip to England!
Check out the video here and get the full recipe below.
