Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup dried black-eyed peas
3 cups water
3/4 cup whole milk
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1 cup all purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 large egg
1/3 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon minced seeded jalapeño chilies
2 teaspoons (about) vegetable oil
Purchased medium-hot salsa

Steps:

  • Place dried black-eyed peas in medium pot. Add enough cold water to cover by 3 inches; let stand overnight. Drain peas.
  • Return peas to pot. Add 3 cups water. Cover; simmer until peas are tender, stirring occasionally, about 40 minutes. Drain peas, reserving 1/3 cup cooking liquid.
  • Transfer 1 1/4 cups peas to processor and puree until smooth, adding enough reserved cooking liquid 1 tablespoon at a time to help blend. Transfer puree to a large bowl. Mix in milk, onion, lime juice, hot pepper sauce and remaining whole peas. Stir in flour, baking powder and baking soda. Season with salt and pepper. Mix in egg. Cover and chill batter 30 minutes.

Cook until bubbles atop pancakes break and batter is almost set, about 3 minutes. Turn pancakes over; cook until cooked through. Transfer pancakes to baking sheet; keep warm in oven. Repeat with remaining batter, adding more oil to skillet as needed, making 24 pancakes.
  • Spoon salsa onto plates. Arrange 4 pancakes alongside salsa on each plate. Top with sour cream mixture and serve.

BLACK-EYED PEA SALSA / RELISH



Black-Eyed Pea Salsa / Relish image

Call it a relish....call it a dip....call it a salsa...or call it a side dish...I call it delicious! A friend of mine got this recipe from "The Pioneer Woman cooks" website, but I've changed a few things and added some of my own stuff. Even if you don't like Black-Eyed Peas, you'll like this! Even my little girl gobbles it up when I make it.

Categories     Beans

Time 30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/3 cup olive oil
1/3 cup white vinegar
1 teaspoon brown mustard
2 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper (fresh is best)
4 stalks celery, finely chopped (leaves and bottom cut off)
3 green onions, sliced
1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 cucumber, peeled, seeded, and chopped
1 jalapeno (optional)
cilantro, chopped (to taste)
2 (12 ounce) cans black-eyed peas, drained and rinsed
8 ounces canned white corn, drained and rinsed

Steps:

  • 1. In a large bowl (because this makes a lot!), combine oil, vinegar, mustard, sugar, celery seed, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  • 2. Add celery, green onions, bell pepper, cucumber, jalapeno, and cilantro. Mix into dressing until well covered.
  • 3. Add the corn and peas (make sure the cans are drained and rinsed). Mix well.
  • 4. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour, but it tastes better if you let it sit a little longer.
  • I will use this as a topping for grilled chicken, or you can eat it like a dip (by serving it with corn-chips). I've even added twisty pasta to it and made it into a pasta salad. Enjoy!
