CRUNCHY ROASTED PEAS

Steps:

• Defrost peas, then dry them with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel. Place them in a bowl and mix together with olive oil, garlic powder and salt.
• Pour peas into the air fryer basket and cook on 180C / 350F for approximately 15 minutes. You'll need to shake the basket every few minutes to ensure even cooking and check in on your peas regularly. They're ready when they are nice and crispy.
• Preheat the oven to 180C / 350F.
• Defrost peas, then dry them with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel. Place them in a bowl and mix together with olive oil, garlic powder and salt.
• Pour peas onto a baking tray lined with foil, spread out into a single layer and bake for 20 minutes, or until the peas crispy and golden. You'll want to give the baking tray a good shake every few minutes to ensure even cooking - the peas on the outside of the tray will cook faster.

ROASTED CARROTS AND PEAS

• Preheat a rimmed baking sheet in a 450 degrees F oven. Quarter 1 1/2 pounds carrots lengthwise and toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon each ground coriander and ground ginger, and salt to taste.

ROASTED CHICKPEAS 3 WAYS

Steps:

• For the chickpeas: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put a few layers of paper towels on your work surface. Strain and rinse the chickpeas in a colander, then shake off as much water as possible. Transfer them to the paper towels, top with more paper towels, then pat them gently and roll them around a bit to dry. Discard any papery skins that have peeled off or are about to. Slide the chickpeas onto a large rimmed baking sheet, and let stand at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
• Roast the chickpeas, stirring them occasionally to keep them from burning in spots, until a little shriveled and pretty crispy, about 45 minutes. Start checking them at around 35 minutes to make sure they are not burning.
• Meanwhile, make the seasoning mixes. For the Taco Seasoning: Mix the chili powder, coriander, cumin, granulated garlic and onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
• For the Vinegar-Lime Seasoning: Mix the vinegar, lime zest and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
• For the Onion-Garlic Seasoning: Mix the granulated garlic and onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
• When the chickpeas are done, divide them evenly among 3 medium bowls. Toss each batch with 1 tablespoon of the oil, then toss 1 batch with each of the seasoning mixes.
• Return the chickpeas to the baking sheet, keeping each batch separate. Roast them for 3 minutes, just to cook the seasonings slightly. Let cool completely on the pan on a rack, about 30 minutes, then transfer to airtight containers. The chickpeas will keep for 1 day and will soften slightly as they sit.

ROAST PORK WITH CREAMY PEAS

Steps:

• Prepare the pork: Mix 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 teaspoons each mustard powder and chile powder, 1 tablespoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl. Put the pork on a plate, pat dry and rub all over with the spice mixture. Refrigerate, uncovered, at least 4 hours or overnight.
• Whisk the remaining 2 teaspoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon each mustard powder and chile powder, the Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a bowl; set aside for brushing.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Rinse the pork and pat dry. If desired, tie kitchen twine around the pork in a few places to help it keep its shape. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork, fat-side down, and sear until golden, about 5 minutes. Continue to cook, turning, until golden all over, about 5 more minutes. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet, fat-side up, and roast 30 minutes. Brush with three-quarters of the vinegar mixture; continue roasting until a thermometer inserted into the center registers 145 degrees F, 15 to 20 more minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and brush with the remaining vinegar mixture. Let rest 15 minutes before slicing.
• Meanwhile, make the peas: Bring 6 cups water, the granulated sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a boil in a saucepan. Add the peas, bring to a simmer and cook until tender, 8 to 10 minutes for fresh peas or 3 to 4 minutes for frozen. Drain, transfer to a bowl and keep warm. Add the cream to the pan, bring to a boil and cook until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Whisk in the butter, then add to the peas and toss. Add the parsley and scallions, season with salt and pepper and toss. Serve with the pork.

ROASTED PEAR QUICK BREAD

Steps:

• Make the roasted pears: Heat the oven to 400 degrees. On a large baking sheet, toss the pears with the melted butter, vanilla and salt and spread in an even layer on the pan. Transfer to the oven and roast until pears are tender and beginning to brown at the edges, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool to room temperature.
• While the pears cool, make the streusel: In a medium bowl, stir together the oats, brown sugar, flour and cinnamon to combine. Add the cubes of cold butter and use a pastry cutter or your hands to work the butter into the other ingredients until the mixture becomes clumpy. Stir in the almonds. Set aside.
• Make the quick bread: Lightly grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan, and lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt to combine. Set aside.
• In a large bowl and using an electric mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the oil, butter and brown sugar until well combined, about 1 minute. Add the eggs one at a time and mix well to incorporate after each addition, scraping the bowl as necessary. Beat in the almond extract if using.
• With the speed on low, gently add in half the flour mixture and mix until incorporated. Add the buttermilk in a slow, steady stream and mix to combine, then add the remainder of the flour mixture and mix until just incorporated. Add the cooled roasted pears and use a rubber spatula to gently fold them into the batter. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread in an even layer.
• Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the loaf. Bake the quick bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the streusel is golden brown, 55 to 65 minutes. If the streusel is getting too dark before the interior is fully baked, tent with foil. Let cool for 20 minutes in the pan, then unmold onto a cooling rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
