Directions:

  1. Process 1 1/2 cups black-eyed peas in a food processor until coarsely chopped.
  2. Whisk together egg, cumin, and salt in a large bowl. Add chopped peas, remaining whole peas, 3/4 cup breadcrumbs, and next 5 ingredients; stir well to combine.
  3. Place remaining 1/2 cup breadcrumbs in a shallow dish.
  4. Using a 1/4 cup measure, shape pea mixture into a cake; dredge in breadcrumbs. Repeat with remaining mixture and breadcrumbs. Place cakes on a baking sheet lined with plastic wrap; cover and chill overnight.
  5. Pour oil to a depth of 1 into a large skillet; heat to 350°.
  6. Fry cakes, in batches, 3 minutes or until golden. Drain well on paper towels. Serve immediately with Cranberry-Red Pepper Salsa.
  7. Freezer Note: If you won't be serving all the Black-eyed Pea Cakes at once, freeze uncooked cakes; then thaw before dredging in breadcrumbs and frying.
