Green Pea Hummus

Instructions

1. Put frozen peas into a medium sized heat-resistant jug or bowl. Pour a kettle of boiled water over the peas and leave to sit for 1-2 minutes. Drain peas in a sieve or colander then tip peas into the bowl of the food processor (if using a larger Kenwood processor, fit with the 1.5l mini bowl and blade).
2. Add the clove of garlic, tahini and lemon juice. Process until mixture is smooth (scrape down the sides of the bowl from time to time to make sure everything is well blended).
3. Add the olive oil and a pinch of salt, then blitz until mixed through. Taste and add more salt if needed. (Olive oil can become bitter when overly processed, so adding it at the end once you’re happy with the texture is key.)
