How to Make Creamed Potatoes and Peas
Advertisement
-
Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring water to a boil over high heat, and then reduce to a simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes. With 5 minutes remaining, add the frozen peas. Drain.
-
In a large skillet, melt butter and garlic together over medium heat. Stir in flour and whisk until a paste forms with the butter. Add in milk, a little at a time, whisking it constantly until it thickens – about 5 minutes.
-
Season with turmeric and salt and pepper, stirring to fully combine. Taste, adding more salt if needed.
-
Add potatoes and peas to cream sauce, and stir to fully coat them. Continue to cook for 5 minutes until everything is heated thoroughly.
-
Remove from stove and allow to sit for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the cream sauce to thicken as it cools down.
-
Serve in bowls and enjoy this comforting potatoes and peas meal!
