Guest guest Posted July 17, 2001 Report Share Posted July 17, 2001 * Exported from MasterCook Mac * Sugar Snap Peas with Scallions and Dill Recipe By : Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone, Deborah Madison, p 400 Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Vegetables Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1 pound sugar snap peas -- strung - or winged peas 6 scallions -- finely sliced - including a few inches of the greens salt and freshly milled pepper 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil 2 tablespoons chopped dill - or another favored herb This basic dish is easy to vary: Use shallots instead of scallions. A handful of peeled fava beans, pea shoots, and slivered asparagus tips added to the peas turns it into a spring vegetable saute. Put the peas in a skillet with the scallions, a few pinches salt, the butter, and enough water just to cover the bottom. Cook, until bright green and tender, after a minute or two -- taste one to be sure. If using olive oil, add a little to the pan now. Taste for salt, season with a little pepper, and add the dill. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Per serving (excluding unknown items): 10 Calories; less than one gram Fat (5% calories from fat); 1g Protein; 2g Carbohydrate; 0mg Cholesterol; 5mg Sodium Food Exchanges: 1/2 Vegetable _____ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
