Grilled English Peas

Serves 1+

  • Fresh English or shell peas, in their pods
  • Olive oil
  • Kosher salt
  • Balsamic vinegar (optional)
  • A few fresh mint leaves, thinly sliced (optional)
  1. Prepare your grill for high, direct heat.
  2. Place a handful of peas into a bowl and drizzle olive oil over them. Sprinkle generously with kosher salt. Toss to coat with oil and salt.
  3. Place peas on hot grill, arranged in a way so that they don't fall through the grill grates. Grill a few minutes on each side, so that the peas are well charred, and sufficiently cooked so that the peas are tender inside.
  4. Remove to a bowl and drizzle with a little balsamic and toss with a little mint if you want. Enjoy!
