green/garden peas

The pea is most commonly the small spherical seed or the seed-pod of the pod fruit Pisum sativum. Each pod contains several peas, which can be green or yellow. Pea pods are botanically fruit, since they contain seeds and develop from the ovary of a (pea) flower. The immature peas (and in snow peas the tender pod as well) are used as a vegetable, fresh, frozen or canned; varieties of the species typically called field peas are grown to produce dry peas like the split pea shelled from the matured pod.

    Recipe Curried Cauliflower and Pea Soup

    I went looking for this recipe earlier to use party of a massive head of cauliflower I bought at the weekend and couldn't find it anywhere. So with one clue as to which cookbook it was in, I went and looked it up. We've changed the recipe because the original calls for both dairy milk and...

    Recipe Potato, Pea and Dill Patties

    This is barely a recipe at all! But it is so delicious. Dill is the key to this humble dish. You can make this from leftovers, as I did. Its akin to 'bubble and squeak' but perhaps a little more elegant? It could be served as a starter with a yoghurt and mint sauce or as I did, as part of a...
