Method

  1. Heat a grill or barbecue to high. Melt a knob of butter in a saucepan with a splash of olive oil. Add the broad beans and about 3 tbsp water. Boil quickly, drain, put in a blender and roughly purée. Stir in the chilli, season and keep warm.
  2. Warm 2 tbsp olive oil in a small pan, then add the shallots and garlic. Bring slowly to a simmer, then remove from the heat. Add the red wine vinegar and mint. Leave to infuse for 10 minutes.
  3. Season the cutlets, then rub with a little olive oil. Chargrill for 2-3 minutes on each side, until lightly charred but still pink on the inside. Remove and rest for 2 minutes. Eat with the warm broad bean mash and mint vinaigrette.

    Geri - it tells you in step 1 of the method. :s "Melt a knob of butter in a saucepan with a splash of olive oil. Add the broad beans and about 3 tbsp water. Boil quickly, drain, put in a blender and roughly purée. Stir in the chilli, season and keep warm."

    I am always on the lookout for new recipes and really like the look of this. Can you tell me - would it be fresh or tinned broadbeans?

    When in a hurry I have used frozen broad beans, thawed and the outer skin shucked off and it was really tasty.
