Description
This is a wonderful recipe I use which calls for fresh pearl onions and fresh or frozen peas. Quick and tasty!
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups fresh pearl onions
- 2 cups fresh or frozen peas
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon margarine or butter
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- ⅛ teaspoon onion powder
- ⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
Directions
- 1. Fill a saucepan with water, and bring to a boil. Cook pearl onions in boiling water for 3 minutes, drain, and rinse in cold water. Peel onions, and remove the ends.
- 2. Place onions with peas in the saucepan, and fill with enough water to just cover the vegetables. Simmer until tender, about 10 to 12 minutes. Drain, and place vegetables in a bowl.
- 3. Melt margarine in the saucepan over medium-high heat. Pour in cream, and season with salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Bring to a boil; cook until thick, stirring constantly. Stir peas and onions into the sauce to coat. Serve immediately.
