Sophie's pea, mint & halooumi patties

1. An hour or 2 before making these patties, you can make the batter in a large bowl & put clingfilm over the top & keep it in the fridge.
2. Boil the peas in boiling water until they are al dente. Por running cold water over them to keep them from stopping boiling. So they will keep the green fresh colour. Drain well. Put 1/2 of the peas in a foodprocessor. Puree them.
3. Sift the selfraising flour & the cornstarch into a large bowl. Whisk in the milk, eggs & the pureed peas. Fold in the cubes of haloumi, the whole peas, the mint & some grinded black pepper. Mix slowly everything together with a metal spoon, because you won't want the air to go out of the batter. Taste! It has to taste fab! Place clingfilm over the top of the bowl & put into the fridge until you are ready to fry them. The batter will have thicken by now!
4. Take a large non stick pan & pour 1 layer of the fruity EVOO in the pan. Heat up on medium high. When hot, ad a large tablespoon of the mixture on side of the pan & another one at the other side of the pan & fry for about 1 to 2 minutes per side until the pattie is golden & cooked trough. Drain on layers of kitchen paper & add EVOO to the pan & do the same with the rest of the batter. Drain well on kitchen paper.
5. When you are ready to serve, take your plates, lay 2 patties on your plate, ad a slice of lemon & place a little serving pot with sweet chili sauce on your plate . Put a bit of the lemon juice over the patties & dip into the sweet chili sauce!!

Enjoy!!!
