Cooking Directions

  • Place all citrus crème fraîche ingredients (be sure to reserve 20g crème fraîche for pea fritter mixture) in a medium bowl and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate.
  • Place peas in a medium heat proof bowl, cover with boiling water and set aside for 5 minutes. Drain well and roughly puree half the peas with a stick blender. Combine pea puree and the remaining fritter ingredients in a medium bowl and stir until well combined. Fold through remaining whole peas.
