Servings: 4
Course: Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch

Ingredients
  

  • 400 grams frozen petis pois
  • 1 lemon zest and juice
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp white miso paste optional
  • 20 grams nutritional yeast optional
  • 70 grams coconut yoghurt plain and unsweetened
  • 10 grams mint chopped
  • 10 grams basil chopped
  • sea salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp mixed seeds optional
  • 1 tsp tamari or soya sauce optional
  • 4 radishes sliced
  • 8 sunsoaked tomato pieces

Method
 

  1. Cook the frozen petis pois in boiling water for 2 minutes. Immediately drain and set aside to drain further.
  2. Grate the zest of 1 lemon into a large bowl. Then squeeze in the juice. Tip the peas into the bowl. Add the olive oil, miso paste, nutritional yeast and coconut yoghurt.
  3. Set aside around 2 tablespoons of herbs to garnish and add the rest to the bowl. Stir to combine then use a potato masher or hand blender to smush the peas until you have a rough puree.
  4. Try the mixture and season to taste.
  5. If you're using the seeds, put them in a frying pan on a medium heat to toast for a few minutes. When they are nicely toasted add the tamari/soya sauce stir to combine and set the seeds aside (off the heat).
  6. Toast the bread then spoon on the peas.
  7. Finish with slices of radish, sunsoaked tomatoes, seeds and a sprinkling of the fresh herbs.
