Background

My daughter loves this spiced green pea stew, even with the cayenne pepper (which is optional). I made it with leftover roasted/barbecued garlic but feel free to use jarred garlic purée if you don’t have any home-made version. You can use fresh garlic too, add this to the sautéed vegetables. Serve the dish with pasta, rice or crusty bread. Alternatively it can be served as a side dish with some grilled fish or meat.

Ingredients

1 onion
One large carrot
1 Tbsp olive oil
2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp ground cumin
½ teaspoon turmeric
¼ teaspoon of cayenne pepper (optional)
2 cups of green peas (fresh or defrosted)
1 Tbsp tomato purée
4 cloves of roated garlic ( or 1 Tbsp garlic purée)
One ripe tomato; chopped
One cup of water
2 cups of green peas
2 Tbsp chopped Coriander leaves Lemon, salt&pepper
Lemon, salt&pepper

Instructions

Finely chop the onion and squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skin into a small bowl.
Cut the carrot into small cubes.
Heat the olive oil in a large pan and gently sauté the carrot and onion. Add the spices, the tomato purée and the garlic purée. Stir to combine, then pour over the water.
Cook under cover for about 15 minutes until the carrot is tender, then add the peas and cook for five more minutes.
Season with salt and pepper to your liking and scatter some coriander on top. Serve warm with a squeeze of lemon.
