Step 1

Preheat the oven to the lowest setting.

Step 2

Slice the ciabatta diagonally into 12, brush both sides with the oil and griddle or grill until toasted and golden. Keep warm in a low oven.

Step 3

Meanwhile, boil the peas and beans for 3 minutes, drain. Reserve one half and place the other half in a food processor with the mint, garlic, cream cheese and seasoning. Mix to give a coarse paste.

Step 4

Spread the pea paste over the toasts and top with the remaining pea and bean mix.

Step 5

Scatter with extra mint leaves, chilli and Parmesan then drizzle over balsamic glaze to serve.
