Pesto eggs with crushed peas on toast

Ingredients
200g/7oz frozen garden peas
4 slices bread, toasted
4 tbsp cream cheese
4 tbsp pesto
4 free-range eggs
dried chilli flakes or paprika, to garnish
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Method
Put the peas in a heatproof bowl, cover with just-boiled water and leave to stand for 3 minutes.
Drain well, then crush roughly with a potato masher or large fork and season with salt and pepper.
Place the toast on four plates and spread with the cream cheese. Spoon the crushed peas over each piece of toast.
Spread the pesto in a thin layer across a non-stick lidded frying pan. Crack the eggs into the pan then season with salt and pepper. Cover the pan and cook for 4–5 minutes until the egg whites are set but the yolks are runny.
Place the pesto eggs on top of the pea toast. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with some chilli flakes or paprika and serve.
