What’s a really easy recipe for cooking peas in the pod?
I just got some fresh peas in the pod, but I have no idea how to cook them, and really no other ingredients (except maybe spices I already have in my cupboard). Help!

steam them, then sprinkle spices on them
You should steam them and saute them in the pan with butter, slat, black pepper,garlic,mincied onions and some herbs or what ever else you want they will come out really nicely.
Well the easiest thing I can think of is to first blanch the peas.(meaning boil in hot water and then “shock” with cold water [usually in a strainer]). Secondly, after they are slightly softened, put them in a frying pan with a little water and butter. A a few pinches of garlic powder or one clove of garlic, and you’ve got it. In all it should take no more than 20 minutes. (that is if the peas are freshand not frozen)
This is great, oh so yummie, and simple:
1- boil water. when it boils, and a pinch of salt (to season it)
2- add the peas, pods and all, into the boiling water
3- let the pea pods hang out for about 1-2 min.
4- pull out the peapods and pour melted butter on them.
Voila! You just blanced the peapods. This method of cooking keeps them green and crispy!
Douse in a little oil with garlic, salt, pepper. And saute them. I haven’t done this, but you could get creative and put a little lemon juice and sugar too. I bet that would work.
Melt some butter and saute the peas in it. Yummy
No other ingredients at all? The best way is to stir fry them in olive oil with a variety of other vegetables like mushrooms, green onions, red peppers, zucchini and garlic. You can also serve with Chicken or fish. If they’re fresh they’ll keep a day or so- go get some mushrooms at least. Good luck.
