Method
step 1
Heat the grains in the microwave following pack instructions. Put the peas in a sieve and pour over boiling water.
step 2
Put 50g of the peas, most of the mint leaves, the spring onion whites, vinegar, sugar and stock cube in a food processor, and blend to a smooth paste, adding a little water if you need to. Divide between 2 soup or pasta bowls.
step 3
Divide the remaining peas, hot grains and ham between the bowls and pour over enough boiling water to almost fill the bowls. Stir and leave for 2 mins to heat through.
step 4
Stir in the spring onion greens and remaining mint leaves, season well with pepper and top with some pea shoots.
