I had the in-laws over for Easter Dinner yesterday. I made these instead of the usual peas and carrots that they typically ask for and they loved them. Even the two 20 something single guys who I sent doggie bags home with asked for them. Very nice and refreshing change. You must try, definitely a keeper.

Garlic is mentioned as an ingredient, but it is not listed in the recipe. I just assumed it was meant to be added at the start with the celery and onions (?)

Not sure where you're looking. It is actually listed in the text recipe in Step 1 between the mint and butter (1 clove garlic). Cheers!

Hi, I meant that in Step 2 we are not told when to add it to the pan. Thanks

In Step 2 of the video at 00:54, we show the garlic being added (text has been added to the recipe). Cheers!

I omitted the mint in this dish and tossed in some roughly chopped toasted almonds and pistachios at the end. Served over a bit of brown rice, it made for a delicious lunch!

HI,
I am planning on making this tonight for dinner since we have fresh spring peas. Any ideas of a main that would go with it! Also have some fresh from the garden artichokes. Thanks.

Here are a few main course suggestions that would go nicely with these sauteed peas. For more ideas click on the "main" tab on the left side of the recipes page.

Chicken Marsala
Beef Tenderloin w/ Red Wine Sauce
Almond Sole
Lemon Chicken w/ Pinenuts and Olives
Pork w/ Morel-Calvados Sauce
Roasted Lamb Sirloin
Caprese-Style Steak

Have a nice dinner - Cheers!

This sounds great. Thanks. But if someone in our party doesn't eat olives (okay, it's me), any ideas for substitution? Thanks so much Dawn!

I guess I suggest leaving them out...but too bad for your guests. I think you should learn to love them :-) Other than that you can serve them on the side, or just add them at the end. Cheers!

What an original idea for a salad. I made this to go with a miso grilled salmon, so I left out the mint and added chives and a drizzle of toasted sesame oil instead.

I served it with a simple couscous, which I mixed with the peas for lunch the next day and that was really good too.

Instead of Romaine what other vegi can u suggest

If you do not want to use romaine, you can simply leave it out. Otherwise, you could try adding something like sautéed celery or carrots. Whichever vegetable you choose to add, you just need to make sure they are cooked to the proper stage before you add or combine them with the peas. Cheers!
