Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
1 whole dried chile de árbol*
1 fresh mint sprig
1 garlic clove, minced
3 cups fresh or frozen peas
Generous pinch of sugar

Steps:

  • Heat oil, butter, chile, and mint in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat 2 minutes. Add garlic and stir 1 minute. Stir in peas and sugar; cook until peas are just tender, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Discard chile and mint sprig. Transfer pea mixture to processor and puree until almost smooth (some texture should remain). Season puree to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Let puree stand at room temperature. Rewarm in microwave oven on high about 2 minutes.)
  • *A small, bright red chile that's available at some supermarkets and specialty foods stores and at Latin markets.

I'm not a big fan of peas, but I actually enjoyed this pea puree. It was light and refreshing.

Overall, this pea puree is a solid recipe. It's easy to make and the flavor is good. However, I think it could be improved with a few tweaks.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pea puree turned out lumpy. Not sure what went wrong.

This pea puree was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.

Great recipe! The pea puree turned out creamy and flavorful. I served it with roasted chicken and it was a hit.

I love how versatile this pea puree is. I've used it as a dip for vegetables, a spread for sandwiches, and even as a pasta sauce.

I've tried many pea puree recipes, but this one is by far the best. The addition of white wine and shallots really elevates the flavor.

Easy to make and delicious! I added a touch of mint to give it a refreshing twist.

This pea puree was a delightful side dish! The vibrant green color and smooth texture made it visually appealing. The flavor was delicate and fresh, with a hint of sweetness from the peas. It paired perfectly with the grilled salmon I served it with.
