Ingredients
- 400g frozen peas
- ½ x 30g pack coriander
- zest and juice of 1-1½ limes
- 75g soured cream
- 1 finely chopped green chilli
To serve
- tortilla chips
Step by step
- Bring a saucepan of salted water to the boil. Add the frozen peas, return to the boil and cook for 1 minute then drain and refresh in iced water. Drain again once cold.
- Place the peas in a food processor with the coriander leaves and the lime zest and juice (to taste). Process to a thick purée, then add the soured cream and most of the green chilli. Blend again until combined and season with salt to taste. Spoon into a serving bowl and garnish with extra chopped chilli and coriander leaves. Serve with tortilla chips (gluten-free if required), if you like.
