This was a new recipe - Slimming World - as often the case sounds bizarre but heavenly - good for vegetarian diet.
Batchelors savoury rice (cooked) pressed down on the bottom if the dish. Peas pudding spread thickly on top then the cottage cheese & eggs mix. ( 1 tub 3 eggs) Turn it into an extra easy one with superfree such as tomatoes & onions
Another Slimming World idea - scrape out the middle of a breadbun - ham and favourite salad - laughing cow cheese triangle instead of butter! LUSH!!!!!!
Our own eggs - (well the hen's) lol salad wrap - ham and lots of salad rolled in a large lettuce leaf...
Salad with a barbeque.
Picnic by Lake Ulswater

Ingredients
To make this Pease Pudding - Braised Yellow Split Peas Recipe you will need the following ingredients:
450g / 1 lb or a packet of yellow split peas
Water to soak
1&1/2 pints/800 ml water or stock - to cook
1 onion - small diced
1 clove garlic - crushed seasoning
Variations - use smoked garlic instead of the normal one or / and add a smoked cooked ham hock to the pot or add 3 rashers of chopped thick butchers smoked bacon to the pot or add 1 large diced potato to the mix and finish of with a tablespoon of chopped parsley (all added before cooking)
Methods
To make this Pease Pudding - Braised Yellow Split Peas Recipe:
◦Soak the split peas over night (I use a 2 pint jug and fill the water to the top)
◦Wash of thoroughly, in a sieve
◦Add to a large oven proof dish and cover with 1 & 1/2 pints water
◦Add the onion, garlic, NO salt at this stage but a few twists of pepper
◦Cover with a lid or make a tin foil lid and bake in a preheated oven gas 6 / 200*c / 400* f - for 1 & 1/2 hours, stirring once or twice
◦Tip - if the pease pudding dries out too quickly and absorbs too much water, simply add a little more
◦Take the lid of, stir very well, breaking up the peas a little
◦Place back in the oven for up to 30 minutes or until the pease pudding has thickened and is the consistency of hummus or mushy peas
◦Stir well again to break up the peas and mush a little (this will happen easily by just stirring)
◦Season to taste
◦Serve hot (or cold) and with what’s left over, refrigerate - the mix will set
◦For cold pease pudding, simply cut of a slice and serve with meats or pate
◦For warm pease pudding cut of a slice and fry in butter until lightly golden on both sides
Delicious! We have salad with everything:-)
ReplyDeleteLOVE salad jabblog - always make a big one up each morning - that way lasts the whole day's menus x
DeleteJust found your blog, love the food you have prepared. Could you please tell me if the eggs you added were cooked already or was it raw eggs and you then cooked the whole thing in the dish. Will look in regularly now, hopefully help my weight loss ;-(( ))

ReplyDeleteHiy - the eggs are beaten with the cottage cheese then poured over and yes the whole thing is cooked in the dish. Tastes best when chilled - then warmed up only slightly as it is firmer than when it comes straight out of the oven.
DeleteSorry, can't write a lot, mouth's watering too much.
