Ingredients

450 
g
 
Birds Eye Peas
1 
tablespoon
 
olive oil
1 
medium red onion (finely chopped)
1 
clove
 
garlic (crushed)
6 
mint leaves
50 
ml
 
thick natural Greek yoghurt
2 
small red chillies (halved, deseeded and finely chopped)
1 
tablespoon
 
ground cumin
Few 
drops of tabasco sauce
salt
freshly ground black pepper
1 
family pack of nachos
75–100 
g
 
Monterey Jack or mature Cheddar cheese (grated)

Our method

  1. Cook the peas according to the cooking instructions on the pack. 
  2. Heat the oil in a pan and sauté the onion and garlic for 2–3 minutes over a gentle heat or until just softened and crisp in texture.
  3. Blitz the onion, garlic, peas and mint in a food processor until coarsely blended or the desired consistency is achieved
  4. Stir in the yoghurt, chillies, cumin and Tabasco and season to taste
  5. Chill well. Meanwhile, put the nachos onto a baking tray and sprinkle over the cheese. Pop under a preheated grill for 2–3 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the nachos are warm.
Try with taco chips, as a filling in pitta bread with iceberg lettuce or stuffed in a baked potato.
