Categories     side-dish

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound sugar snap peas (can substitute with snow peas or green beans)
1 small piece fresh horseradish (no more than 1 inch needed)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Juice from 1/2 lemon

Steps:

  • With a paring knife, remove the stems and peel the pod strings of the sugar snaps. Set aside.
  • Using a peeler, remove the rough, outer skin of the horseradish. (Only remove the desired amount to be used, leaving the rest of the root intact.)
  • In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, add the butter. Gently swirl the butter and lightly agitate with a small whisk. Season with some black pepper. Once the milk solids begin to turn golden brown, after about 2 minutes, add the cleaned snap peas. Toss them twice in the pan, then add the lemon juice and season with salt.
  • Transfer to a serving vessel. Using a hand-held grater, grate the peeled horseradish over the top.
