Instructions

Shell 1 lb. green peas, put into a colander and run cold water through, then shake 1/2 teaspoon of flour over them. Melt 1 teaspoon of butter in a saucepan, put in the peas, then shake well in the butter till they are warmed. Add 1 teaspoon of sugar, 1 good shake of pepper and just enough water to cover, and boil gently till peas are tender. At the same time have cooking enough diced young carrots to make about the same bulk as the peas. When these are nearly cooked, add them to the half-cooked peas and finish cooking both together. Serve with chopped parsley sprinkled over all.
