Peas on toast

Ah, peas on toast—a simple British classic! It’s super quick, comforting, and surprisingly tasty. Here’s the lowdown:

Ingredients

• Bread (your choice: white, wholemeal, sourdough)
• Frozen or fresh peas (about ½ cup per slice)
• Butter or olive oil
• Salt and pepper
• Optional: mint, lemon juice, grated cheese, or a fried egg on top

Instructions

1. Toast the bread until golden and crisp.
2. Cook the peas: Boil or steam them for 2–3 minutes until tender.
3. Mash or leave whole: You can lightly mash the peas with butter, salt, and pepper, or leave them whole for texture. Optional: add a splash of lemon juice or chopped mint for freshness.
4. Assemble: Spread the mashed or whole peas onto the toast.
5. Optional toppings: Sprinkle cheese, cracked black pepper, or top with a fried egg for extra indulgence.

It’s simple, healthy, and surprisingly satisfying—a proper “comfort food in 5 minutes.”

If you want, I can also give a slightly fancier version that tastes like a café brunch dish. Do you want me to do that?
