How to Make Ricotta Toasts With Peas and Lemon

Bring a pot of water to a boil.

Add peas and cook for 1 – 2 minutes or until peas are tender and still bright green.

Drain peas in a colander and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.

In medium mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, julienned mint leaves, salt and pepper.

Toss the peas in the dressing until coated.

To serve, place peas in a small serving dish on a platter along with baguette toasts and homemade ricotta. Garnish with fresh pea shoots.
