I found this german recipe which might be like the pea mashed potato dish Christine mentioned
Title: Erbsenpuree (yellow Split-pea Puree)
Categories: German, Vegetables
Servings: 6

2 c Yellow Split-peas; Dry
6 c Stock, Broth; Or Water
1 Onion; Large, Whole
1 Carrot; Large
1 Turnip or Parsnip; Large
1/8 t Marjoram; Dried
1/8 t Thyme; Dried
1 t Salt
1 Onion; Small, Minced
2 T Butter; Melted
2 T Unbleached Flour

Presoak peas, if necessary, according to package directions. Drain well,
if presoaked. In a large pot, add water or stock, whole onion, carrot,
turnip or parsnip, marjoram, thyme, and salt. Cook until peas and
vegetables are tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Drain well. Mash peas and
vegetables in blender or press through a sieve. In a small frying pan,
saute the minced onion in butter until lightly browned; blend in flour and
cook about 2 minutes. Add to blended peas and vegetables. Beat until

Hi, split peas are the foundation of the Indian staple meal I know as “dal and rice”. This amazingly inexpensive meal contains proteins, fats and starches. The turmeric used in it keeps one’s memory fit until high age.
Fry 2 chopped onions, add 1 tablespoon turmeric and 2 teaspoons chilli powder, add 450 grams washed split yellow peas, add water to more than submerge the peas. Boil until the peas are tender (maybe 30 minutes). Stir occasionally to check it’s not burning at the bottom and if needed, add some hot water to ensure it remains a flowing mixture. To be on the safe side, salt at the end. One cup of this is a portion for one person. Dal is eaten with rice or flat bread. For many Indians, dal and rice can rightfully be called the staff of life.

I have a girlfriend who's husband is from Norway. She learned to cook down split peas in a pan and allow the water to evaporate down and eats it with butter like we would mashed potatoes. I'm sorry I cannot remember what she called it.
