British Whole Yellow Peas

Best Before

These whole yellow peas are half-price because their BBD is 28/2/2024 but they're still perfectly good. Get them whilst stocks last!

What Are Whole Yellow Peas?

Whole Yellow Peas are the same peas used for Split Yellow Peas but with the skin left on. They have a firm texture and lovely flavour and are especially good in curries and as a chickpea replacement. 

These peas are grown in Shropshire.

Cooking Whole Yellow Peas

Soak overnight, drain and rinse. Place in a pan with plenty of water, bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 45-60 minutes until tender. They can then be used immediately or frozen for later use. 

Yellow Pea Curry Recipe

To make a delicious yellow pea curry, take 200g cups of the presoaked and pre-boiled peas.

Heat some oil in a pan and add 1 tsp cumin seeds followed by 1 finely chopped onion, 5 finely chopped green chillies and 2-3cm grated ginger. Cook for 2-3 minutes on a low - medium heat stirring occasionally, until the onion becomes translucent.

Then stir in 2 finely chopped tomatoes and 1/2 tsp chilli powder, a pinch of salt and 1 tsp cumin. Cook for 6-8 minutes.

Add the peas, pinch of turmeric and a handful of chopped coriander leaves. Serve this immediately and enjoy!
