Don’t worry about the late introduction of the peas during cooking – since they’re fresh they won’t take any time at all to cook and the heat from the potatoes will be plenty to cook them through and make sure they’re tender when it’s time to eat.

This recipe is very similar to the salsa we have available in the market – try making it yourself and see if you can tell a difference!
