I’ve been seeing so many references to Mushy Peas served with Fish and Chips that I decided it was time to give them a try. They aren’t a normal side dish here in the NW, but both G and I like peas so what the heck.
There were quite a few recipes to choose from on-line, Basically the same ingredients were in all of them.
Cook 2 cups green peas, not the petite kind.
Drain the water used to cook them.
Using a potato masher or blender, give them a good smushing. (Yes, that is a very technical cooking term.)
Add: 1/4 cup milk or cream, 2 tablespoons butter and S & P to taste. Give them a good mix. They were actually pretty good. I’ll make them again.

I made this salmon the night I made the mushy peas recipe with the Sweet Chili Sauce. Wow, it was fabulous. If you can get your hands on a piece of salmon and some chili sauce, it is worth a try. I just browned it lightly in butter for a few minutes and then added the chili sauce. So good.
and remember: Be the reason someone smiles today. Big kiss, Lynn
