Ingredients

  • 400g Snag sausage, casings removed
  • 2 cups frozen peas, thawed
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Steps

1

In a large bowl, mash the thawed peas with a fork or potato masher, leaving some texture.

2

Add the sausage meat, flour, egg, and mint to the bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.

3

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture into the hot oil, flattening them slightly.

4

Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Serve immediately.

Tips

Ensure the sausage is fully cooked before adding it to the pea mixture. This prevents a greasy fritter.
