This is a recipe my stepfather has been making for years. He learned it while living in Mexico. It is delicious and is best when you let it sit overnight.
Ingredients
- 2 (10 ounce) packages frozen peas, defrosted
- ½ cup fresh lime juice
- 2 cups plain yogurt
- ½ cup olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, smashed
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 2 cups ice water
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt
- ¼ cup red bell pepper, chopped, or more to taste
- 2 tablespoons chopped tomatoes, or to taste
- 1 tablespoon chopped jalapeno pepper, or to taste
Directions
Step 1
Puree peas in a food processor or blender, constantly scraping down the sides. If peas are too dry, add a little of the lime juice.
Step 2
Add remaining lime juice, yogurt, olive oil, garlic, and chili powder. Blend until liquefied. Pour into a large bowl; add ice water and salt and stir to incorporate. Refrigerate until flavors combine, at least 4 to 6 hours.
Step 3
Garnish each serving with red pepper, tomato, and jalapeno.
