Ingredients

2 cups frozen peas
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh mint, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

Cook frozen peas according to package directions until tender. Drain well.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Add cooked peas, cream, salt, and pepper.
Using a potato masher or fork, mash the peas to a chunky consistency, leaving some whole for texture.
Stir in chopped mint if using. Cook for 1-2 minutes until heated through. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Serve warm alongside fish and chips.

Tips

For a smoother texture, use an immersion blender briefly.
Leftover mushy peas can be refrigerated for up to 3 days; reheat gently on the stovetop.
