- 2 medium potatoes
- 1 cup of peas
- Sal Island
- Black pepper
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Wash the potatoes well and dry them with a cloth. With a skewer stick or a fine, well-sharpened knife we prick them everywhere, to prevent them from exploding inside the microwave.
- After the wrap with transparent film, turning them two or three times so that the steam does not escape during cooking.
- Next, the we put in the microwave at 800W of power, in two batches of 5 minutes, separated by a minute of rest. The first time you may have to adjust the time as this will depend on both the microwave and the size of the potatoes, but experience will help you to give them the exact point.
- We take them out and let them temper while let's cook the peas in plenty of water for 4 minutes.
- Peel the potatoes, we cut into slices and we serve in a fountain together with the drained peas.
- Season with salt, pepper and a olive oil drizzle extra virgin.
