To begin making the Mashed Peas, first cook the peas till they lose their bite (you can use a pressure cooker or a saucepan to cook them)

Reserve some water and drain off the remaining water from the vessel

In a pan heat the olive oil

Add the garlic and peas and sauté for 2-3 minutes

Take it off the heat and add the mint leaves and mashed avocados

Mash together the peas and avocado

You can use a food processor for blending them together, a potato masher or you can mash it using your hands

Add some reserved water if required

Season with salt and pepper and add the lime juice

Serve the mashed peas along with your favourite curry for a light meal or spread them on toasted bread for a quick snack

You can also have it along with salads like Beetroot salad with mixed greens and feta cheese and Smoked tofu and grilled vegetable salad
