Cook your sausages which way you like. (yummy on the bbq) At same time boil up your baby new potatoes in salted water.
While they are cooking, finely chop the onion and sweat off or soften with olive oil adding salt half way through, you donβt want them to end up being too crisp, just slightly golden brown and soft.
Mix your mayo and sweet chille sauce (check out my recipe for sweet chile jam) in a bowl β equal quantities.
Cook your peas for one minute in boiling water β add salt, half the sugar, and the mint. Drain (keeping 1 or 2 tbs of the flavoured water) add the peas and mint into blender, add some of the water, sugar (to taste - if your peas are deliciously sweet you will not need much sugar if any at all!!) and cream. Blend until fine β if you want it to be a sauce add enough water and cream, if you would prefer a puree, donβt add so much of the flavoured water and cream! Season to taste.
Drain your potatoes, add the mayo/sweet chille mix, the softened onions, chives, a touch of salt & pepper and stir gently until evenly coatedβ¦
Serve with the cooked sausage and mint pea sauceβ¦
Yum Yum! Enjoy!
