Original Recipe Yield 4 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1 pound baby red potatoes, quartered
  • 1 cup shelled English peas
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup milk

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Boil potatoes for 15 to 20 minutes, or until tender. Drain.
  2. In a medium saucepan, bring 1 cup water to a boil. Simmer peas in boiling water for 6 to 7 minutes, or until tender (do NOT overcook). Drain.
  3. Using the same saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour to make a thick paste; gradually whisk in milk, stirring constantly until slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Now add potatoes and peas to the sauce; simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring often. Serve immediately.

Footnotes

  • Editor's Note:
  • One pound fresh peas in pods is equivalent to about 1 cup shelled peas.
