This minted pea and potato barbecue salad works perfectly with any BBQ lamb recipe. It is an accompaniment so you don’t actually need a barbecue grill to enjoy this one, in fact it’ll do nicely with a simple lamb chop.
Fresh new potatoes are required for this recipe, I usually go for the Charlotte variety but so long as they’re small you’ll be able to get away with whatever you get locally.
It’s really easy to prepare, I like to serve it semi warm so it’s something that you can throw together before going outside to enjoy the barbecue cookout.
TIP - Make plenty! It’s absolutely delicious cold too.
Ingredients:-
450g or 1 lb baby new potatoes
150g or 5oz sugar snap peas or freshly shelled peas
Boil the potatoes until almost tender (circa 15 minutes depending on size) add the peas and boil for a further minute. Drain and immediately toss in the olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice, sprinkle generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper and finally toss in the chopped fresh mint.
