England is famous for its mushy peas, so to celebrate this great little vegetable I’ve decided to do my own take on the whole mushy pea thing. This is the kind of food I love to cook and eat outdoors, especially when the sun’s out. All my friends who have tasted this have absolutely loved it – so I know you will too.

ingredients

  • • 500g peas in their pods (about 150g shelled weight)
  • • 700g broad beans in their pods (about 250g shelled weight)
  • • a small bunch of fresh mint, leaves picked
  • • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • • extra virgin olive oil
  • • 50g finely grated fresh pecorino cheese, plus extra for serving
  • • juice of 1 lemon
  • • 4 slices of sourdough bread
  • • 1 clove of garlic, unpeeled, cut in half
  • • 2 large balls of buffalo mozzarella cheese, torn in half
  • • a handful of pea shoots
