    Preparation Steps

    1

    Bring a pot of water to a boil, then add the frozen peas. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until tender.

    2

    Drain the peas and return them to the pot. Add the butter, milk, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.

    3

    Use an immersion blender or food processor to purée the peas until smooth and creamy. If it's too thick, add a little more milk.

    4

    Slice the onion thinly. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and fry the onions until golden brown and crispy, about 8-10 minutes.

    5

    When serving, sprinkle the pea purée with the crispy fried onions, and drizzle with a little extra olive oil if desired.
