"I am not saying this is an original mushy peas recipe as served in English or Irish pubs! But what I am saying .... This is the recipe I like.... so there! So before you go telling me it is not authentic.... This is how I like my mushy peas ... please! lol Even though I prefer vegetables over meat ANY DAY, every now and then I might have a go at an " Aussie Pie Floater" I love this with a Aussie pie and call this my sort of comfort food or Iron intake.....lol.....although I do prefer my mushy peas on top! Do not use baby peas for this recipe as they do not work too well!"
