• step 3

  For the peas and pea puree boil the peas in some milk until cooked through then add the sorrel for 5 seconds. Shell all the peas and put half of them and the sorrel to puree to a smooth consistency. Add just enough milk to smoothen it as without liquid you will never get the silkiness.

Occasionally whisk it and cook it for 8-10 mins or until it emulsifies into a mayonnaise consistency. If you leave it too long or heat it up too much it will scramcle so be careful.
