Ingredients

6 Shallots, sliced

3 Garlic cloves

4 tbsp Butter

480 ml Full fat cream

900 g Fresh or frozen peas (defrosted)

25 g Fresh mint

3 Lemons

120 g Flour

600 g Panko breadcrumbs

5 Egg whites

3 tbsp Salt

LEMON MINTED YOGURT SAUCE

3 Zest of lemons

25 g Fresh mint, chopped

735 g Plain yogurt, strained

1 tbsp Salt

Method

In a large cast-iron skillet or pot, sauté sliced shallots and garlic in the melted butter for five minutes until lightly browned.

Add cream and reduce liquid by half.

Add the peas to the pot and stir over a medium heat for 3–5 minutes.

Remove pot from the heat and allow to cool for a few minutes.

Transfer ingredients to a food processor and blend together.

Add pea mixture to a large bowl along with 120g of panko breadcrumbs and 120g of flour, salt and pepper.

Combine ingredients then gently fold in the egg whites.

Mould the pea mixture into 85g fritter patties.

Dip each fritter into the remaining panko and pack the breadcrumbs onto the fritter tightly.

Deep fry each fritter approx. 3–4 minutes in at least 10cm of oil. To serve, top with lemon minted yogurt sauce.

LEMON MINTED YOGURT SAUCE

Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix thoroughly.

Allow the mixture to sit a minimum of 20 minutes to allow the flavours to develop.
