- Put the peas in a bowl and cover with cold water. Rinse them well, then drain off the water along with any debris that floats to the top. Repeat a couple of times.
- Add the rinsed peas to the slow cooker, pour in the water and olive oil, and add the salt and herbs (I love herbes de Provence, but Italian seasoning works too, or you can spice it up with aromatic peppers).
- Choose the "Stew" setting and cook for 2 hours (you can shorten this if you soak the peas for a couple of hours first).
- I like my purée a little on the chunky side, but if you want it perfectly smooth, blitz it with an immersion blender.
- Sprinkle the finished purée with a little more seasoning.
- Serve hot — enjoy!
