Peas lightly cooked with a little butter and garlic plus Creole mustard and mushrooms. Tweaked from my 1959 Farm Journal's Country Cookbook ... they actually call it French Peas , but that makes me think of the lettuce leaf thing; this title is more descriptive of the yummy taste.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon creole mustard or 1 teaspoon gulden spicy brown mustard (works, too)
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups peas, fresh or frozen
4 mushrooms, thinly sliced (more if you really like mushrooms)
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon water
Directions:
1. Melt butter in a heavy skillet and lightly saute garlic; blend in mustard.
2. Add peas, mushrooms and salt and sprinkle with the water.
3. Cover pan tightly and cook over medium heat about 5 minutes or until peas are cooked to your liking, shaking pan occasionally.
