Made this recipe?
Crispy, salty bacon bits, cooked on the barbecue to add a smoky crunch to any dish.
Cook the Peas
Place the frozen peas in a small saucepan and cover with boiling water. Bring back to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes until tender. Drain well, reserving a tablespoon of the cooking water.
Blend the Puree
Transfer the drained peas to a food processor. Add the butter, chopped mint, and the reserved cooking water. Blend until smooth, or to your desired consistency. For an extra-smooth finish, you can pass the puree through a fine-mesh sieve.
Season and Serve
Season the puree with sea salt, black pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice to taste. Stir well and serve immediately.
