English Peas with Mint

This vibrant dish of English peas with mint is a celebration of seasonal British produce. By gently sautéing spring onions before simmering the peas with fresh herbs, you create a side dish that is far more refined than simple boiled vegetables. The natural sweetness of the peas pairs perfectly with the cooling notes of the mint, resulting in a clean and bright flavour profile that complements almost any main course.

As a naturally vegan recipe, this dish is a healthy and light addition to a Sunday roast or a midweek spring dinner. Using fresh, shelled peas provides a superior texture, though you can easily adapt the method for frozen garden peas if the season has passed. It is an effortless way to bring a touch of garden-fresh colour to your table in less than ten minutes.
