  1. Drain and rinse the black-eyed peas. Finely chop the jalapeno slices and set aside with the chopped onion.

  2. Put the peas, onion, jalapenos and a splash of water in a saucepan. Simmer over medium-low heat for about 25 minutes, stirring often, until the peas are very soft.

  3. Mash the peas coarsely with a potato masher, leaving some texture. Stir in the salsa and hot sauce.

  4. Remove from the heat and stir in the sour cream and half of the grated cheddar. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  5. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle the remaining cheddar on top. Let it sit for 5 minutes so the cheese softens, then serve warm.
