Sautéed peas with chorizo migas & golden fried egg If you are lucky enough to try guisantes de lágrima (peas of tears) in the Basque,then you will surely agree that these are the best peas ever. I believe they got this name simplybecause they are very small. It’s true, they are really tiny, with an unforgettable sweet flavour. So few are produced that they can exceed the price of gold! Don’t miss the harvest, which runs from March to June. I think this dish is perfect at any time – for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Proper comfort food! Serves 6 olive oil 2 banana shallots (echalions), finely chopped 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped 400 g (14 oz) fresh baby peas 125 g (4 oz) cooking chorizo, cut into small cubes 150 g (5 oz) stale bread, cut into small cubes sea salt and freshly ground black pepper 6 free-range eggs handful of mint leaves |
