Macho Peas (Inspired by Nando's)
This is really easy to make, especially if you have a small hand blender like I do.
Peel the shallot and garlic
Deseed the chilli (or don’t, I didn’t. I just chopped the stem off)
Throw it in a hand blender with the paprika. Don’t make a paste, just get it chopped really finely. You can do this by hand but I’m not a caveman and will, therefore, use any and all tools at my disposal
Heat up the oil and throw the blend in
Put the peas in the hand blender and give them a half second pulse. This should just crack them a bit, don’t puree the bloody things
Throw the peas in with the mixture and keep stirring it
After about 5 minutes, finely chop the mint and throw it in with the salt
Stir it on the heat for about 2 minutes
That’s the job done. The peas should still have a little bit of crunch but be covered in that lovely mixture
