Step 1

Blanch the peas in generously salted and boiling water for about 1 to 2 minutes until slightly softened.

Step 2

In a food processor, add the peas, a handfull of mint, chopped chives, some fresh dill, the juice of half a lemon and its zest, one clove of garlic, tahini, a generous pinch of salt, some freshly grounded black pepper and 1 tablespoon of olive oil . Blend everything together until a relatively smooth paste is formed.

Step 3

Toast a thick slice of sourdough bread in a generous amount of olive oil on both sides. Cut the end of a garlic clove and rub it onto both sides of the bread for some extra flavour.

Step 4

Spread the pea mixture on top of the slice. Top with dollops of ricotta and some chopped almonds for some extra crunch.
