Frozen green peas are one of the most practical, healthy ways to add essential vitamins and minerals to your diet. Thanks to quick-freezing, peas retain their nutritional value and are available year-round. Unlike fresh, seasonal peas, frozen peas can be found in stores at any time, so you can enjoy this green vegetable regardless of the season.

By choosing frozen peas you save time - there’s no shelling or cleaning—and they’re easy and fast to prepare. Frozen peas are also a long-lasting option: keep them in the freezer without fear of spoilage, which helps reduce food waste.

Why Is It Important to Eat Green Peas?

Peas are a rich source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. They contain B-vitamins, vitamin C, and folate, important for a healthy nervous system. They’re also a strong source of plant-based protein, making them ideal for vegetarians and anyone looking to cut back on meat. The fiber in peas supports digestion and helps with better blood sugar regulation, making peas a smart choice for people who are mindful of their diet. Regular consumption may also support heart health by helping manage cholesterol and blood pressure.

At What Age Can Children Eat Peas?

Peas are an excellent choice for infants, rich in nutrients essential for healthy growth and development. They can be cooked and puréed for easier digestion. Their delicate texture and gently sweet flavor often make them a favorite among children. Peas are typically introduced after eight months so the digestive system can adjust gradually. Your pediatrician can advise on the best timing.

Frozen peas are very simple and quick to prepare, and there are various ways to cook them depending on the dish you’re making. Here are some common preparation methods:

Boiling (Classic Method)

  • Step 1: Bring a pot of water to a boil.
  • Step 2: Add frozen peas directly to the boiling water (no thawing).
  • Step 3: Cook 3–5 minutes until tender and bright green.
  • Step 4: Drain and season with olive oil or butter, plus salt and herbs

Best for serving peas as a side dish.

Steaming

  • Step 1: Set up a steamer basket or place a sieve over simmering water.
  • Step 2: Add frozen peas and cover with a lid.
  • Step 3: Steam for about 5-7 minutes until soft.

This method preserves more nutrients and gives peas a mild, clean flavor.

Frying in a Pan

  • Step 1: Warm a little olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Step 2: Add frozen peas directly to the pan without thawing.
  • Step 3: Sauté for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly caramelized.
  • Step 4: Add salt, pepper, garlic, or other spices to taste.

Great for adding to risotto, pasta, or salads.

Microwave Cooking

  • Step 1: Place frozen peas in a microwave-safe bowl.
  • Step 2: Add a small amount of water (about 2 tablespoons per 200g of peas).
  • Step 3: Cover the dish and microwave on high for 3-4 minutes (time varies by quantity).
  • Step 4: Drain excess water and season.

This is the fastest method, perfect for quick meals or as a side dish.

Adding to Soups and Stews

  • Frozen peas can be added directly to soups or stews without thawing. Simply add them towards the end of cooking (5-10 minutes before the dish is ready) to keep them bright and juicy.

Frozen peas are a highly versatile ingredient, perfect for everything from creamy soups to salads and pasta dishes.
