Minted Sugar Snap Peas
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 1 pound sugar snap peas trimmed
- ¾ teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 Tablespoon unsalted butter or unrefined cold-pressed extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 shallot thinly sliced or 1 garlic clove, peeled and crushed
- 2 Tablespoons thinly sliced fresh mint
- 3-4 Tablespoons water
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, add all the ingredients. Bring the water to a boil, lower the heat, cover and simmer for 2-3 minutes or until crisp-tender.
- Remove garlic if that’s what you used. Season to taste for salt. That's all there is to it. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve immediately.
Notes
Sometimes I like to add the zest of one small orange, lemon or lime to the pot.
