Easy Creamed Peas and New Potatoes Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 pound baby red potatoes, quartered
• 1 cup shelled English peas
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 1 cup milk
• salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Place potatoes in a large pot, cover with salted water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, approximately 15 to 20 minutes. Drain well.
2. In the meantime, bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Add peas and simmer until just tender, about 6 to 7 minutes. Drain and set the peas aside.
3. Add butter to the same saucepan and melt over medium heat. Stir in flour to create a thick paste. Gradually whisk in milk, stirring constantly until slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper to your liking. Add potatoes and peas; simmer, stirring frequently, until potatoes are heated through, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately for the best flavor.
