Ingredients

3 cups, frozen (400g) Green Peas — Frozen peas are picked and frozen within hours, which is why they are sweeter than most fresh ones in a shop.
a handful (12g) Mint — Raw, into the blender. Cooked mint goes brown and loses everything.
crumbled (60g) Feta — Half blended in for salt, half crumbled on top.
1, juiced (25g) Lemon — It keeps the colour bright as well as sharpening the flavour.
1 1/2 tbsp (25g) Olive Oil — Blended in, which is what makes it a dip rather than a purée.
