This is a dish that I enjoyed as a child and still remember with pleasure. Mom's homemade bread made the perfect complement to this meal.
Ingredients:
6 cups water
2 teaspoons salt, divided
1 pound green beans, cut into 1-inch pieces
6 medium carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
3 medium potatoes, peeled and quartered
1 cup fresh or frozen corn
2 cups fresh or frozen peas
6 tablespoons butter, cubed
2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons minced chives
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
Directions:
1. In a Dutch oven, bring water and 1 teaspoon salt to a boil. Add the beans, carrots, and potatoes. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 15 minutes. Add corn and peas; cook 3-5 minutes longer or until tender.
2. Drain, reserving 2 cups liquid; set vegetables aside. In the same pan, combine the butter, cream, chives, pepper, paprika, reserved liquid and remaining salt. Add vegetables and heat through. Yield: 8-10 servings (3 quarts).
