Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

16 ounce Green Peas
2 Leek
4 tablespoon Butter
1 tablespoon Fresh Mint
to taste Salt

Steps:

  • Slice the Leek (2) lengthwise in half, remove a couple of layers of the outer leaves so that you are left with the tender center leaves.
  • Cut off the root ends and the dark green tops and thinly slice the leeks into 1/4 inch slices so you are left with the white and light green portions of the leeks.
  • Place the sliced leeks in a bowl, fill with cold water and swish the leeks around to remove any dirt from between the leaves, pour the leeks into a strainer and drain well.
  • In a medium pot, melt 3 tablespoon of Butter (3 tablespoon) over low heat and add the sliced leeks to the melted butter. Stir to coat the leeks in butter and simmer over low heat for about 20 minutes, stirring often until leeks are soft and tender without browning.
  • Once leeks are tender, add in the Green Peas (16 ounce), turn heat up to medium low and gently stir to incorporate the peas into the buttery leeks.
  • Cook the peas with the leeks for about 7-10 minutes, stirring often until cooked through. Test for seasoning at this stage and add Salt (to taste) as needed.
  • To serve, place buttered peas and leeks in a serving bowl and top with remaining 1 tablespoon of Butter (1 tablespoon) and Fresh Mint (1 tablespoon).

Bursting with spring flavors, the mild, slightly sweet leeks and fresh mint add just enough flavor to the sweet green peas in this simple side dish that’s ready in about 30 minutes.

Add it to morning smoothies, sprinkle it on top of roasted chicken, or toss it with mixed greens in a salad or fresh fruit.

SHEET-PAN GNOCCHI WITH ASPARAGUS, LEEKS AND PEAS RECIPE ...
This sunny dinner cooks entirely in the oven on two sheet pans, so both the vegetables and gnocchi are cooked properly with minimal effort. Asparagus, shallots, leeks and peas balance out the rich, caramelized gnocchi, but you could experiment with your vegetable choices: Cut delicate vegetables in larger pieces and firmer vegetables in smaller pieces so they cook at similar rates. Refrigerated gnocchi (often labeled “skillet gnocchi”) work best here, but shelf-stable gnocchi are also fine. Simply boil them first.
