Instructions
1 Place peas in a medium bowl and cover with boiling water. Leave for 1 minute, drain and refresh under cold water. Drain again.

3 For a smooth guacamole, add avocado to processor and blitz until combined. For a chunkier dip, roughly mash avocado in a bowl. Add puréed pea mixture and mix to combine. Add lime juice and pepper, to taste.
