Frozen green peas

1½ cup(s)

Skim milk

½ cup(s), (125ml)

10 g

Fresh mint

2 tbs, finely chopped

Lamb backstrap, raw

Instructions

  1. Place the potato in a saucepan of salted water. Bring to the boil and cook for 15 minutes or until tender. Add the peas 2 minutes before the end of the cooking time. Drain and return to the pan. Add the milk and canola spread and use a potato masher to mash. Stir through the mint and season with salt and pepper.
