1. Preheat the broiler.
2. In a medium lidded pot or saucepan heat the oil oil. Saute the onion over medium heat until soft, about 7 minutes. Add the garlic, salt, and chili flakes. Cook one more minute, until fragrant. Add the wine and cook until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the peas and mint; cover, and cook until vibrant green and tender, about 5 minutes for frozen, 2 minutes for fresh. Remove from the heat and puree with an immersion or stand blender until coarse (you don't want it completely smooth). Taste for seasoning and add more salt as necessary. Pea mixture can be made up to 3 days in advance.
3. When ready to eat, arrange the bread on a baking sheet and toast under the broiler until golden brown on both sides. Slather each piece with the pea mixture. Garish with additional mint, a drizzle of olive oil, and some freshly grated pecorino (optional).
