Buttery Minted Peas
Ingredients:
•2 tablespoons butter
•1 tablespoon mint jelly
•1 tablespoon water
•1/4 teaspoon salt
•1 bag frozen peas, defrosted and drained
•2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves
Preparation:
Melt butter, mint jelly, water, and salt together. Toss with the defrosted, drained peas. May be prepared ahead up to this point and refrigerated.
Heat gently at serving time, just until done, and sprinkle with the fresh mint leaves.
You would never believe these peas are from the supermarket freezer. The mint jelly, butter, and fresh mint bring them up to the quality of a vegetable at a good restaurant. I found this recipe at about.com
