Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound baby red potatoes
1 cup frozen peas ((or fresh, *see note))
4 Tablespoons butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
1/4 cup heavy cream (, or half and half)
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon
salt and freshly ground black pepper (, to taste)

Steps:

  • Wash and cut the potatoes into bite-size pieces. Add to a pot of boiling water and cook until fork tender, about 5-8 minutes. Be careful not to over-cook them--you don't want them to be too soft. Drain into a colander and set aside.
  • In the same pot, over medium heat, add the butter and melt. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  • Slowly stir in milk, whisking the entire time, until blended and smooth. Cook, stirring, until slightly thickened. Add the chicken bullion paste and season with pepper and a little bit of salt.
  • Stir in heavy cream until you've reached a good gravy consistency.
  • Taste the sauce, and add more salt, pepper or bullion paste, as needed to reach a great flavor. Add another splash of milk, if needed, to thin the mixture.
  • Add potatoes and frozen peas and stir everything gently to coat. Serve warm.
