Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 pound Sugar Snap peas
4 carrots, about 1/2 pound
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Trim off and discard the tips of the peas.
  • Scrape and trim the carrots. Cut the carrots into 1 1/2-inch lengths. Cut the pieces lengthwise into 1/4-inch slices (batons) about 1/4 inch wide. There should be about 1 1/2 cups.
  • Bring enough water to a boil in a saucepan to cover the peas and carrots when added. Add the vegetables and cook about 4 minutes, or until they are crisp tender. Drain immediately.
  • Return the peas and carrots to the saucepan. Add the butter, mint, salt and pepper. Stir and blend well. Serve immediately.
