Step 1.
Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil. Add the potatoes and boil for around 15 minutes, or until just cooked through. Take care not to overcook; they should be firm but just soft enough to poke your fork through without resistance.
Step 2.
While the potatoes are cooking, add the asparagus spears to the saucepan for 2 minutes, then remove them with tongs and place them in a colander. Rinse under cold running water to stop them cooking, then set aside.
Step 3.
When the potatoes are done, drain them and set them aside in a colander to steam dry.
Step 4.
To make the whipped pea and artichoke purée, blend all the ingredients in a small food processor (which will give you a chunky texture) or a blender (for a smooth texture). Season to taste with plenty of salt and pepper.
Step 5.
Cut the potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Cut the asparagus spears into 3cm pieces. Thinly slice the artichoke pieces.
Step 6.
Combine the potatoes, asparagus, artichokes, rocket and peas in a large bowl. Add the Dijon mustard, lemon juice and olive oil. Toss to combine, and season well to taste.
Step 7.
To assemble, spoon plenty of the whipped pea mixture on to a plate. Top with the potatoes and vegetables, then drizzle with a little more olive oil, and sprinkle over the za’atar and sesame seeds, if using. Tear over the mint leaves and crumble on the vegan feta or tofu, then serve.
