Directions

  1. Cook peas in pot of boiling salted water for about 2 minutes or until tender and bright green. Drain.

  2. In food processor fitted with metal blade, combine peas, chives, mint, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper; pulse until well combined but still chunky. Add olive oil, purée until smooth.

  3. Smear pea mixture over each slice of toast. Top with fried eggs; sprinkle with additional salt and pepper if desired. Garnish with pea shoots. Serve immediately.

 Notes

For a very herbaceous spread, add 2 tbsp (30 mL) each chopped basil and parsley to food processor along with the other ingredients before puréeing.
