Cream Peas and PotatoesPosted Sunday, May 31, 2009, at 4:40 PM
Frozen peas White cream sauce Peel and dice potatoes in to small pieces Cook until fork tender While the potatoes are cooking make a white cream sauce about 3 cups Once the potatoes are done completely drain off the water, then put them back into the pan and add the cream sauce, some pepper and a TBsp of butter, and add a cup of the peas. It goes very well with a steak off the grill and a warm slice of french bread. Comments Showing most recent comments first [Show in chronological order instead] |

I (heart) Gotta laugh but the only short cut I can give you is to use the McCormick Country Gravy Mix and do it the way I do which I haven't done for cream peas and tators but have for SOS
Mix one cup of water, one cup of milk add a bit of butter and pepper once it comes up to temp slowly wisk in the pack of mix, just remember that makes 2 cups so take it from there.
Darn ... thought you were gonna save me a step or three, LOL. Thanks though, for clearing that up. I'm craving creamed peas and baby taters now - yum! :O)
Guess I should add I just drain my potatoes and use the same pan I cooked the potatoes and cut 2 to 3 strips of bacon to fry, removed the bacon from the pan and start with the flour to get the rue then the milk and sometimes I add some butter to the rue, once the cream sauce is as thick as you want put the tators back in and then add the peas. Only my way of doing it maybe someone else out there has a better way.
I(heart) I don't take any question as being stupid. A white cream sauce is just what you listed, I just didn't add that to the recipe. I do mine with bacon grease, flour to make the rue then add the milk or part milk and part condensed milk and you can also use heavy cream if you like. All your really doing is making a gravy and its just called a white cream sauce. Hope that answers your comment. Thanks for asking for me to clear it up what I meant.
I hope this isn't a 'stupid question' ... but what is 'white cream sauce'? I make creamed peas from scratch (flour, milk or condensed milk, etc) and your way sounds soooo much easier. Care to share this mystery ingredient? ;)
Yum! Love spuds and peas. Thanks Eagle.
