Mushy peas or English style pea garnish

mushy peas It is a very typical dish of British cuisine that is usually served as an accompaniment to another super typical dish that is fish and chips. This is how I met him and I really loved him!

It's a kind of pea puree, which is thick and coarse in texture because it is not crushed, but rather crushed. Combined with a little bit of cream, mint and lemon is a real delight.

It is very simple to do and it is quite a source of vitamins, minerals and fiber. And, in addition, you will like to know that peas help reduce cholesterol and that they have very few Kcal So even if we add a little cream or butter to this recipe, the proportion is very small, and therefore, the final Kcal of the dish will be quite low.

And, if you are following a low calorie diet and you want to do without or replace those more caloric ingredients (butter and cream) with olive oil or whipped cheese, you can also do it without problem.
