Ingredients

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1/2 cup chopped onion

2 cups shelled peas, fresh or frozen

3/4 cup water

2 tablespoons tahini

3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

2 tablespoons sour cream

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Salt to taste

Food processor

Directions

Heat the olive oil in a small pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until soft and translucent, but not browned, about 4-5 minutes.

Add the peas and the water, cover and bring to a boil. Let this cook 5 minutes, then drain the peas and onions.

Put the peas and onions into the bowl of a food processor and add all the remaining ingredients. Pulse until you have a rough purée. Serve chilled.
