Best 5 Creamed Peas With Crispy Shallots Recipes

CREAMED PEAS WITH FRIED SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Toss the shallots with 1/4 cup half-and-half and a large pinch each of salt and black pepper in a small bowl. Set aside to soak 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the flour, cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl. Heat about 1/4-inch vegetable oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, remove the shallots from the half-and-half, coat with the seasoned flour and fry, stirring, until crisp and golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain; sprinkle with salt. Add more oil to the skillet as needed between batches.
• Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the peas and cook until tender, 5 to 7 minutes; drain. Add the remaining 3/4 cup half-and-half and the cheese to the pan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring, until creamy. Stir in the lemon zest, nutmeg and a few grinds of black pepper. Stir in the peas until well coated; season with salt and black pepper.
• Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the parsley. Transfer to a serving dish and top with the fried shallots.

PEAS AND RICE WITH CRISPY SHALLOTS

Steps:

• 1. Place the uncooked rice into a 3-1/2-quart Dutch oven with a heavy lid. Add the vegetable stock and a pinch of salt. Bring the broth to a boil over high heat. Immediately turn down the heat to simmer and put the lid on. Simmer for 20 minutes.
• 2. Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a 2-quart saucepan over medium high heat. When the oil is hot, add the shallots. When the shallots are brown, in just a couple of minutes, remove them from the pan with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• 3. When the rice is done, quickly add the peas. Don't stir them; just leave them on top of rice to steam. Cover the pot and let simmer for 10 minutes.
• 4. Fluff the rice/peas with fork. Spoon mixture into bowls, sprinkle with the chives and parsley, and finally with the shallot garnish. Serve while hot.
