Ingredients
Product used:
2 cups of McCain Peas
- 1 tsp olive oil
- ½ tsp paprika
- ½ tsp cumin
- ½ tsp ground coriander seeds
- ½ tsp salt
- Optional – ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
Method
1. | Preheat a fan-forced oven to 180°C and line a large baking tray with greaseproof paper |
2. | Completely thaw McCain Peas, and blot with paper towel to remove any excess moisture. This will ensure your roasted peas are crunchy. |
3. | Combine spices and salt in a mixing bowl, add McCain Peas and toss to coat. Evenly spread peas on lined roasting tray. Drizzle with olive oil and roast for 30-40 minutes, shaking the tray every 10 minutes so they roast evenly. |
4. | Remove peas from oven and allow to fully cool before serving. The peas will crisp up as they cool down. |
