Fresh Peas and Green Garlic are both in season. Here’s a recipe that uses both.
Once you shell the peas, the rest is easy.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 Tbsp Olive Oil
- 1/2 Tbsp Butter
- 1 Bulb Green Garlic – thinly sliced
- 1 Slice Prosciutto – thinly sliced
- 1 Cup of Shelled Fresh Peas
- 1/4 Cup Water
- Freshly Ground Black Pepper
Directions:
Heat the olive oil and butter in a saute pan. Add the green garlic and prosciutto and cook until both are golden. Stir in the peas and add the water. Cook until the peas are tender but still bright green and the water has reduced to create a sauce, about 3-4 minutes. Add several grinds of fresh black pepper.
