Peas with Mint 


Simple and delicious. 

serves 4 

 

750 g. unshelled peas 
or about 300 g. frozen

2 t. finely chopped mint + 1 sprig 

good pinch sugar
1 t. butter 

Place the peas in a small pot. Pour over a little hot water (just enough to almost cover the peas) add the sugar and mint sprig, bring to the boil and cook over low heat for 4 to 6 minutes uncovered until barely tender. 

 

Drain and discard sprig.  Return to the heat and add the butter, a pinch of salt and the chopped mint.  Shake the pot until the butter is melted and well distributed.  Continue to sauté a minute or until the peas are tender.
