Steps
Make the crostini by slicing the French stick and brush each side with olive oil mixed with herbs. (Use a little mint as this goes so well with the pea topping)
Cook in oven for approx. 10 minutes until just browning.
Cook broad beans slightly, allow to cool slightly then pod them
In a pan melt half the butter and warm the peas for a couple of minutes
Blitz the peas in a blender with chopped mint, yoghurt and seasonings
Spread the pea pureé onto the crostinis then add broad bean, a few rocket leaves and parmesan.
Cooks tips
If you make crostini in advance they can be stored in a freezer for up to 3 months. Just take out of the freezer and warm in the oven for approx. 10 minutes until crisp and fully defrosted.
