Country Creamed Peas and New Potatoes

How to Make

• Step 1: Scrub potatoes. Add potatoes to a saucepan or skillet with water (make sure to use one with a lid option). Boil until fork tender.

• Step 2: Turn off heat; add frozen peas, stir. Immediately drain off the water and add peas and potatoes back to the same skillet or pan. Place lid over the top and set aside. (NOTE: Peas can easily be over cooked, therefore, it is important to immediately drain off water. Once the lid is placed on, the residual heat will perfectly cook the peas.)

• Step 3: In a small saucepan, cook onions in butter until tender (just for a couple of minutes).

• Step 4: Add flour, salt and pepper, and cook until lightly browned. Add milk, cooking and stirring until thickened and bubbly. Continue to cook and stir for an additional 1-2 minutes. Taste the white sauce. If bland, add more salt and pepper (s).

• Step 5: Combine the white sauce with peas and potatoes. Gently stir and serve.
