Steps:
- Place drained peas in a medium bowl and mash thoroughly with a potato masher or fork.
- Add all other ingredients except for the tomatoes, onions and optional items.
- Continue to mash until blended.
- Stir in the tomatoes, onions and, if you like, some chopped cilantro and/or jalapenos.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper, if needed.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold potatoes are the best choice for this recipe as they are creamy and hold their shape well.
- Cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the potatoes will not cook evenly.
- Cook the potatoes until they are tender: You can check this by inserting a fork into the center of a potato. If the fork goes in easily, the potato is done.
- Season the potatoes well: Salt and pepper are the basic seasonings, but you can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
