Ingredients
- 500 grams Fresh peas
- 200 grams Baby onions (peeled)
- 30 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 100 milliliters Chicken or vegetable stock
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chervil (chopped)
Directions
Step 1
Peel the baby onions and set them aside. If they are large, cut them in half for even cooking.
Step 2
In a large skillet or sauté pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the baby onions and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to turn golden brown and soften.
Step 3
Add the butter to the pan and let it melt. Stir to coat the onions evenly.
Step 4
Add the fresh peas to the pan, followed by the chicken or vegetable stock. Stir gently to combine.
Step 5
Season the mixture with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Step 6
Cover the pan and let the peas and onions simmer over medium-low heat for about 5-8 minutes, or until the peas are tender and the liquid has slightly reduced into a light sauce.
Step 7
Remove the lid and sprinkle the fresh chopped chervil over the peas and onions. Stir gently to incorporate the herb without breaking up the peas or onions.
Step 8
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve warm as a flavorful side dish with your favorite main course.
