| Another wonderful recipe from Jenny Chandler, author of Pulse and Super Pulse. This time she's brought Mexican flavours to accidentally over-cooked British Carlin Peas. |
"This recipe is the result of a rather fortuitous accident… I’ll confess, I blasted my last batch of Carlin Peas for just a bit too long in the pressure cooker. I’m still learning how to ensure that I don’t reduce my pulses to a mash, nowadays I tend to undercook them and then finish the last few minutes using the pan as a conventional saucepan. Not this time.
"So, a large pot of rather mushy peas - perfect for purée, soup, and why not refried peas? These turned out so incredibly well and are infinitely useful for burritos, tacos, enchiladas, to serve with huevos rancheros - basically anywhere that you might have used your Mexican style re-fried beans.
"It’s worth making a double or even triple batch of these to freeze in small portions."
