SIDE DISH
GET MINTED NOT WASTED
Mushy peas are Britain’s favourite accompaniment to traditional fish and chips. However, this is no traditional recipe as it champions a vegetable stem which is regularly thrown out. Broccoli stalks – which are often chucked away – suddenly become far more appealing when blended to bulk out this pea dish and are seemingly undetectable.
This simple side dish not only; 1. avoids waste, 2. saves money, but 3. adds nutrition = jackpot!
