Southern Color

Oh, the weather has been so nice the last week. I’m looking around for all those pretty Spring colors.

Ah, the spring colors just make me happy!

Today’s Lagniappe:  Garlic Snow Peas
My favorite way to eat snow peas is actually raw – so crisp and delicious. The French name for snow peas is mange-tout which means “eat the lot” – sounds good to me. You can also stir fry them with garlic for a yummy treat.

* 2 cups fresh snow peas (washed, dried, and trimmed)
* 1-2 tablespoon sesame oil
* 3 minced garlic cloves
* salt & pepper

Heat wok  or large skillet on medium-hi heat .

Heat oil until it is hot, but not smoking, the add the  peas.

Cook for about 1 minute, stirring constantly the add garlic and seasoning.

Quick fry just till bright green and still crisp.

Remove and serve while still hot.
