The consistency of mashed potatoes should be as a jelly of medium density, so if necessary, you can add a little water while the blender is working, adjusting the density of the contents.
Next, on one part of the cooled pea mixture, take two parts of vegetable oil without flavor and again break through the blender for at least a minute. After that, pour sugar, salt, mustard, a pinch of pepper and lemon juice into the mixture and beat for another 1.5 to 2 minutes. The amount of flavor additives can be adjusted to your taste, reducing or increasing their number and choosing the optimal proportion for yourself.
