Mushy peas with poached egg
Mushy peas are an absolute delight to the taste buds.
Not only are they incredible for the digestive system, they are also packed with nutrients. This tasty recipe is ‘kid friendly’ – meaning they may even gobble up a whole bowl without realising they are eating ‘vegetables’!!!
Our personal favourite is adding a semi poached egg on the top of this dish. Once served, give someone the honour of cracking the egg and letting the yolk pour into the peas. Simply delicious!
