Juice of 1/2 lemon (about 1 tablespoon)

"This creamy dip on crunchy bread is super satisfying."

Provided by Michael Symon : Food Network

Time 10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups fresh or frozen peas
Kosher salt
1 cup fresh sheep's milk ricotta cheese
Grated zest of 1/2 lemon
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
Freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Grilled bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Add the peas to a large pot of well-salted boiling water. (Make sure there is way more water than peas and enough salt for it to taste like the ocean.) Boil the peas for about 30 seconds. Remove the peas to an ice bath.
  • In a food processor, combine the ricotta, lemon zest, parmesan and mint. Drain the peas and add them to the food processor. Pulse just until the mixture comes together; you want to keep a little texture and not make it totally smooth. Season with salt.
  • Spoon the mixture into a serving bowl, crack some pepper over the top and drizzle with the olive oil. Serve the pea dip with grilled bread.

PEA DIP



Pea Dip image

This is a fresh, zingy dip which is bursting with flavour and a wonderful sense of vitality. I like it with warm pitta bread or melba toast, but it would be good with just about anything. I have even used it to dress pasta, which was rather yummy. All quantities given are approximate - feel free to vary them according to taste.

MINTY PEA AND YOGHURT DIP



Minty Pea and Yoghurt Dip image

Great with veggies if you are feeling healthy or crisps if you are not. I use both petit pois or garden peas for this depending on whats around. I also use either fresh or frozen, just defrost the frozen ones first. The best way to serve this is to put the dip into a bowl and have a big board next to it with your veggies on. And have some salt and pepper to hand in case you need it. It's a good sociable way to start a meal. Remember this will only ever be as good as what you serve with it, for veg I like oval radishes and baby carrots, cos or romaine lettuce, celery etc. Try to get freshest you can, if they still have leafy bits on (carrots radishes etc - leave 'em on, they make great handles) Edit - I just made this and had no fresh mint. I subbed a generous tsp of mint sauce and forewent the lemon juice and it was great!

Time 10m

Yield 200 ml

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (200 ml) container yoghurt
1 -2 bunch of fresh mint, leaves picked
3/4 cup fresh peas
1/4 cup of freshly grated parmesan cheese
1/2 lemon, juice of

Steps:

  • Whiz the yoghurt and mint up in a food processor for half a minute or so.
  • Add the peas and the Parmesan and whiz again - the peas will break down and the yoghurt will become green.
  • Put into a bowl, correcting the seasoning with extra salt and pepper and a good squeeze of lemon juice.
  • Note: When you add the lemon juice and peas to the yoghurt, quite often it splits and turns into a kind of cheese, but this is absolutely fine. It depends on the type of yoghurt you use and how acidic your lemon is. Just pour away any excess water. Usually, though, it doesn't split and is more like a puree, but both ways are good.
