Love em, but they are never done right in most chippies. Down south they are crap.
They need to be made from quality dried marrowfat peas, properly soaked. Not too much bicarb.
Then as said earlier a little mint and vinegar. Smashing.

I love mushy peas, despite being a southerner. Mind you, I was introduced to them by a yorkshireman.

I would never countenance putting gravy on chips though. That is just wrong.

Sounds great, only tried them once as not common up here, might have a crack at making my own.

Chips and gravy are absolutely minging. Apologies to my fellow Northerners but . Us Cheshire people don't - too posh!

However ... eels?! Eels?! Sorry, that's not happening.

Best mushy peas I've ever had was in Dorset. A ball of mushy peas fried in batter. Yum!

I declare that nobody has really lived until they try mushy peas with a flake...and there's absolutely no possibilty of trying it and not liking it...
