Steps:
- Peel the onions, and halve them if necessary. (If quite large).
- Melt the butter in a heavy frying pan, and fry the onions for 5 - 6 minutes over a moderate heat, until they begin to be flecked with brown.
- Add the peas, and stirfry for a few minutes.
- Add 1/4 cup water, and bring to the boil.
- Partially cover, and simmer for about 10 minutes, until both the peas and the onions are tender.
- (Frozen peas will cook more quickly).
- There should be a thin layer of water on the base of the pan, add a little more water if necessary, or if there is too much liquid, remove the lid, and increase the heat until the liquid is reduced.
- Using a small whisk, blend the cream with the flour.
- Remove the pan from the heat, and stir in the combined cream and flour, parsley, and seasoning to taste.
- Cook over a gentle heat for about 3 - 4 minutes, until the sauce is thick.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning, add the lemon juice to sharpen, if liked.
