In a small saucepan, bring the peas to a boil then simmer about 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, onion, egg and seasonings.
Stir in the peas and mash until smooth and combined.
Flour your hands and pinch off about a heaping tablespoon size of the mixtures and form into balls. Press down to form a patty.
Heat the cooking grease over medium heat. Fry the patties until golden brown. Serve warm or at room temp.
