Gordon Ramsay Mushy Peas
Gordon Ramsay’s Mushy Peas combine buttery richness with a zesty kick of lemon. In just 15 minutes, sauté garlic, simmer frozen peas, season, and finish with lemon for a creamy delight. Perfect for four servings.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 cloves garlic
- 10 ounces peas frozen
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 lemon juice
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat.
- Cut up the garlic and cook it for one minute, until it smells good.
- Include the frozen peas after that. Warm up until soft.
- Sprinkle some salt and pepper on top of everything.
- Blend the cooked peas and cream together in a food processor. It’s still going to be very thick.
- Puree the mixture after adding the lemon juice.
- If you want more salt and pepper, taste it and add it.
Notes
- For maximum flavor, use fresh peas when in season; otherwise, frozen peas will do.
- Avoid cooking the peas for too long, or they may turn mushy and lose their bright green color.
- Increase or decrease the garlic according to how much you like the flavor. The flavor of garlic can be mellowed by roasting it.
- Pulse the food processor while adding the cream and peas to get the right consistency. Be careful not to over-blend, since the peas should still have some texture.
