Fresh peas and broad beans on toast: heaven on a plate

Pea and broad beans 4

One of my favourite spring time recipes is undoubtedly fresh peas and broad beans on toast: heaven on a plate. It’s incredibly easy to make and is packed full of goodness.

Ingredients

Handful of raw peas
Handful of raw broad beans
Bunch fresh mint
Mozzarella
Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper
Fresh garlic
Spelt bread (lightly toasted), can be any bread but spelt is much more delicious!

Method
Lightly crush the beans and peas in a pestle and mortar along with the mint. Add olive oil, salt and pepper. Meanwhile, toast the bread and then drizzle with olive oil, before rubbing the raw garlic onto the toast. Then simply spoon the bean and pea mixture onto the toast, topped with torn up pieces of mozzarella, drizzle with olive oil and dig in! Yumminess on a plate!
