Jacques Pépin's Peas And Carrots With Two Onions

🖨 Print & View 👁

Experience the culinary mastery of Jacques Pépin with this elegant yet simple side dish that elevates humble vegetables to something special. The combination of sweet carrots and bright green peas is enhanced by two types of onions—chopped yellow onion for depth and minced scallions for freshness. A light butter-flour liaison creates a delicate sauce that brings everything together without overwhelming the vegetables. Perfect alongside roasted meats or as part of a vegetarian plate, this classic French preparation proves that sometimes the simplest ingredients create the most satisfying dishes. - Claude

Ingredients

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

1 small onion (finely chopped)

3 large scallions (minced)

1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

1 ¼ cups water

½ pound carrots (diced)

¾ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper

½ teaspoon thyme leaves

1 pound frozen petite peas

Directions

In a large saucepan, melt the butter over moderately high heat.

Add the onion and scallions and cook, stirring, until softened.

Stir in the flour.

Add the water, carrots, salt, pepper and thyme and bring to a boil.

Cover, reduce the heat to moderate and cook until the carrots are just tender, about 8 minutes.

Add the peas.

Cover and simmer until the carrots and peas are tender, about 5 minutes longer.

Serve hot.

💡️ Help, Cookie Policy, Privacy Policy, and Terms of Service

🙄 Help: Seriously? You don't need any help.
🌄 Why No Pictures: Well, there ARE some pictures, here and there. But to be honest, if you need pictures showing you how to stir something, you shouldn't be cooking! And really, I find them annoying when all I want to do is look at the recipe! Also, we haven't made most of these recipes. We occasionally take pictures of the finished product when we remember!
💯 Why There Are Recipe Numbers Missing: Well, it's like this. The recipe numbers are automatically generated by the database, always using a new number for a new recipe. Over the last 20 years many recipes, mostly test recipes, have been added and then deleted, leaving only their memory and their number behind. And there was also a lot of weird stuff going on in the beginning, which messed up the order. In terms of date added, the first one is #6, then #4, #9, #10, #4, #718!!!, #2, and finally #1. Just the way databases and poor programmers work!
