2 tbsp fresh mint leaves, roughly torn
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
½ tsp salt
Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
¼ tsp black pepper
1–2 tbsp heavy cream (optional)

Instructions

1
Bring the water to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the frozen peas and cook until just tender and bright green, about 3–4 minutes. Do not overcook — the peas should still be vivid in color.
2
Drain the peas, reserving 3–4 tablespoons of the cooking liquid.
