SMASHED PEA, HERB & BURRATA DIP 🌱🥖 This was the recipe I made at the @bunnings Patch to Plate herb workshop I did over the weekend and because it was such a hit, I’ve decided to share it as a recipe for everyone to save and make! It’s the perfect starter for a spring/summer spread, takes 10 minutes to make. Also a great recipe to use up any soft herbs you have growing at home or in your fridge that might be on their last legs. You just blend everything in a food processor, place onto a platter, top with a burrata and then serve with bread for everyone to dip into. When you cut into the burrata, the cheese will spill onto the dip so you’ll get a mash up of zingy peas, herbs and cheese to slather onto your bread. Serves: 6-8 as a starter Prep time: 10 minutes Ingredients 1 ball of burrata cheese 1 cup of frozen peas, thawed A few bunches of your choice of any soft herbs: mint, basil, oregano, thyme, chives, coriander etc, reserving some mint leaves for garnish The zest and juice of 1 lemon 1⁄4 cup of olive oil, plus extra for dressing 1 generous pinch of salt and pepper 1 baguette, sliced. 1 tablespoon of @chillioiloneverything to garnish Method 1. Thaw your frozen peas in some warm water for 5 minutes and once soft, drain. 2. Place the herbs, oil, salt, pepper and lemon zest into a food processor and blitz into a smooth paste. Add more oil if needed to get a runny pesto consistency. 3. Add half of the peas into the food processor and blend until you get a chunky dip. It’s okay to have some of the peas only slightly chopped. 4. Spread the dip onto a large platter. 5. Scatter over the remaining peas. 6. Place the burrata into the centre of the platter. 7. Garnish with the mint leaves. 8. Drizzle over a tablespoon of olive oil, chilli oil and the juice of half a lemon. 9. Serve with baguette slices. 10. To serve, cut the burrata so it spills onto the dip. Spread a bit of the dip onto a baguette slice and top with some burrata. 11. Enjoy. #BunningsWarehouse #PatchToPlate #JNpartner #AD
