Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tbsp Ghee (Substitute sunflower oil)
  • 1 Bunch Spring Onions sliced, (Substitute scallions)
  • 1 White Potato, about 4" peeled, roughly chopped
  • Black Pepper to taste
  • ½ tsp Ground Cumin
  • 1 Cup Low-Sodium Vegetable Stock (Substitute water)
  • ½ Cup English Peas shelled (can use frozen)
  • 10 Mint Leaves

Goat Cheese Drizzle

  • 4 oz Goat Cheese (substitute regular or non-dairy full fat Greek yogurt)
  • ½ Lemon juiced, about 2 tsp

Instructions
 

  • Heat the ghee in a sauce pan. When warm, add the spring onions and potatoes with black pepper. Sauté for about 5 mins, until fragrant, without scorching. Add ground cumin and temper until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the stock, bring to a boil and simmer for 10 mins or until the potatoes are almost tender. Reduce heat to low.
  • Stir in the peas and return to a boil. Cook for about 5-10 mins until they are just done. Remove the pan from the heat, add the mint leaves and whizz in an immersion blender or in a food processor until smooth.
  • Make the goat cheese drizzle by combining ingredients in a blender or food processor. Add more lemon juice, or water, to get to desired consistency.
  • Serve warm in bowls. Drizzle with goat cheese blend, and scatter with mint and sliced spring onions as a garnish.
