Moorish Mushy Peas with Harissa

Home   Recipes for Pulses, Grains, Seeds, Flakes, Flour, Ferments...   Moorish Mushy Peas with Harissa
British Dal Dried Peas Hearty Light Marrowfat Peas Morocco North African Peas Pulses Summer Vegetarian Whole Peas

by Jenny Chandler November 10, 2017

Spice up your Traditional Mushy Peas with Jenny's Chandler quick but delicious recipe to add a little Moorish pizzazz to good old British marrowfat peas.

Once you’ve cooked up a batch of mushy peas you’ll begin to realise how adaptable they are. Here’s a simple way of giving a bit of Moorish pizzazz to the classic recipe.

Some serving ideas:

  • Top with a soft boiled egg
  • Sprinkle over chunks of feta and plenty of fresh mint
  • Serve with a salad of blanched french beans, cherry tomatoes, capers and diced shallot.
  • Purée to a smooth paste, adding the harissa to taste and eat as you would hummus.

Makes 6 portions as a side, 3 to 4 as a light main

Ingredients

  • 300g Cooked Classic Mushy Peas
  • 1 to 2 cloves Garlic
  • 2 tbsp Cumin Seeds
  • Juice of 1 Lemon,
  • 3 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Harissa to taste (about 1 tbsp per person)

Method

  1. Crush the garlic to a smooth, fine paste.
  2. Toast the cumin seeds in a dry frying pan until you are enveloped in their nutty aroma and then remove from the pan at once. Crush the seeds with a pestle and mortar or whizz in a spice mill until coarsely ground.
  3. Stir the garlic, cumin, lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil into the peas. (Yes, I know that they already have some oil but these need to be especially creamy.) Taste and add more salt if required.
  4. Serve with a little harissa swirled into the peas, or on the side if you’re not sure how spicy everyone likes their food.
