For M in Fl. who was asking about ways to
fix peas and onions. I make creamed
peas and onions and they are very good. You make a basic white sauce, drain the
peas and onions (or just peas if you like) and add them to the sauce. Yummy!
White sauce:
2 Tablespoons butter or margarine
2 Tablespoons all purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 Cup milk
1 can of peas and onions (app. 15 oz.)
Put butter in small pan and melt over low heat. Add flour and salt and
stir for about a min. Slowly add the 1 Cup of milk stirring until smooth and
thickened. If a little thicker than you want add a few drop of extra milk. This
is where a whisk is nice. I couldn't live with out mine. Add your drained peas
and carrots.
I also use this same sauce recipe for peas and carrots, creamed Tuna to be
served on toast or puff pastry shells, chipped beef gravy on toast.
