These bruschetta are great because, if you use frozen peas, they are not just for spring, although eating them in spring does feel very right. The bread can be grilled and the topping made ahead of time, with assembly taking place just before serving. Blanch the peas until tender, drain and refresh under cold water. Reserve 50 g (⅓ cup) of the peas and set aside. Finely grate one of the garlic cloves and place in a food processor with the peas, the lemon juice, mint, parsley and Pecorino Romano. Process to a fairly smooth mixture, scraping the side of the bowl if needed. Stream in the olive oil, process again to combine and season to taste. Transfer to a bowl and mix in the reserved peas. Set aside. Grill both sides of the bread on a grill plate until golden and slightly charred on both sides. Halve the remaining garlic clove and rub one side of the grilled bread with the cut side of the garlic. Place the bread on a serving plate and drizzle with some extra olive oil. Top with some mozzarella, follow with a spoonful of the pea mixture and finish by draping over an anchovy fillet. Top with some lemon zest and extra lemon juice, another drizzle of olive oil, a scattering of extra Pecorino Romano and season with salt and pepper. Cut each slice in half to serve as a snack.
