Food: Donna Hay’s Veal Cutlets with Minted Pea Puree

Ingredients for the cutlets: veal cutlets, cracked black pepper, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 3 tablespoons fresh mint leaves

Ingredients for minted pea purée: 3 waxy potatoes, whole and unpeeled 60g (2 oz) butter, 3/4 cup (6 fl oz) cream, sea salt, 2 cups fresh peas, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

Method: To make the minted pea purée, place the potatoes in a saucepan of boiling water and cook over medium-high heat for 12-15 minutes or until soft. Drain and cool slightly, then press to remove the skins. Return the potatoes to the saucepan and mash well. Return the saucepan to the warm stovetop, add the butter, cream and salt and whip with a whisk until smooth. Keep the mash warm. Place the peas in a saucepan of boiling water and cook for 5 minutes or until tender. Drain. Place the peas, mint and a few spoonfuls of the mash in a food processor and process until smooth. Add the peas to the potato and stir over low heat to warm. To cook the veal, sprinkle the meat well with pepper. Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat, add the veal and mint and cook for 4-5 minutes each side or until the veal is cooked to your liking and the mint is crisp. To serve, place the minted pea purée on serving plates and top with veal cutlets and the crisp mint.
