Lemon-Mint Peas with Burrata and Breadcrumbs
Description
This is a cheat's spring meal in that two of the three main ingredients (peas and breadcrumbs) are frozen... but when the peas pop in your mouth with the fresh lemon and mint and you mix the creamy burrata with the crispy breadcrumbs, I promise it'll satisfy all your spring cravings.
Ingredients
- 1 handful mint
- 1 lemon
- 1/2 bag frozen peas
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/3 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 pinch chile flakes
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 8 ounces burrata
Directions
- Coarsely chop the mint and juice the lemon. Steam or microwave the peas.
- Once the peas are cooked, remove them from the heat and mix in a bowl with the butter, mint, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Drizzle olive oil in a small pan. On a medium heat, toast the breadcrumbs with the chile flakes until crispy. Lightly season with salt and pepper.
- Pour the peas into a serving bowl and place the burrata in the center of the peas. Scatter the breadcrumbs over everything and eat immediately.
