Zucchini Carpaccio with Green Peas
Salads • Spanish
Description
An original recipe from Jamie's Recipes App for iPad. Freshly shelled peas are used in the original, which is, of course, much better. However, they are quite difficult to find here. Therefore, it is acceptable to substitute with frozen peas. But if you find fresh shelled peas, it will be even tastier.
