Popcorn Peas

• 1/2 cup fresh spring peas, shelled and rinsed
• 1/3 - 1/2 cups All purpose flour
• 6 tablespoons Panko or fresh breadcrumbs
• 1 small egg
• 3 tablespoons milk or cream
• All purpose/Creole seasoning/Indian spices
• Vegetable oil, for deep frying

1. Toss the peas with a teaspoon of all purpose seasoning, mixing well. Set aside
2. Get 2 bowls: in one, mix the flour, panko and a teaspoon of all purpose seasoning and in the other bowl, beat the egg and milk/cream together.
3. Put the oil in a deep pot/pan, and let it heat on medium - low while you continue
4. The next steps involve: flour - eggwash - flour. So, toss the seasoned peas in the flour mixture, then in the egg wash, where you should let it sit for a minute or two. Then, toss it again in the flour mixture, so the grains become coated. If you need a guide to handling messy foods....forgive me, for I currently don't have one!
5. The oil should be hot (about 180 deg C), or test with a cube of brown - which should brown in about 30 seconds. Fry the peas in 1 - 2 batches and gently stir, till they turn golden brown.
6. Remove with a slotted spoon into a sieve and let drain for a couple of minutes.
7. Serve on a bed of shredded lettuce with tomato wedges and some hot sauce.
