Pressure Cooker Pea Mash
A perfectly tasty pea side dish for the whole family. Pea mash made in a multicooker-pressure cooker comes together much faster and more easily than on the stove. The peas break down beautifully, turning wonderfully fragrant and smooth. The biggest plus of cooking it this way is that you don't have to soak the peas first — a real time-saver and so convenient.

- You can cook any peas this way — yellow, green, whole, or split. For peas to cook down well, you'd normally soak them for 5 hours, no more, or the flavor of the finished dish can suffer — and it's sometimes hard to time that just right. The beauty of this recipe is that with this method you don't need to soak the peas at all. They cook perfectly without soaking and turn out tender. So: rinse the peas under running water until the water runs clear, then put them in the pressure cooker bowl. Pour in any refined vegetable oil and mix well. Add a little salt. If you like, you can add spices to taste at this point (a store-bought blend is handy). Boil the measured water and pour it over the peas. You can use cold water instead — the process will just take a bit longer. Close the lid and select the "Peas" setting ("Stew"), with the timer at 45 minutes. While the pea mash cooks, go about your business and wait for the end-of-program signal. When it sounds, wait 5 minutes, then release the pressure. If you're not in a hurry, you can let the steam vent on its own. Open the lid, stir the mash, add the butter, and stir again. Wait for it to cool a little and thicken. Spoon the finished mash onto plates, garnish to taste, drizzle with a little olive oil if you like, and sprinkle with nuts or seeds. It's very good topped with meat or mushrooms sautéed with onion and carrot. Enjoy!
