Best 4 Peas And Turnips With Bacon And Dill Butter Recipes

PEAS AND BACON WITH DILL

Steps:

• Cook bacon in a 10-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 5 minutes. Spoon off all but 2 tablespoons fat from skillet (but leave bacon in skillet), then add onion and cook, stirring frequently, until beginning to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add peas, water, salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon dill and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until peas are tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in butter and remaining tablespoon dill.

GLAZED SUGAR SNAP PEAS AND TURNIPS

Steps:

• Boil 3/4 pound sugar snap peas in salted water, 3 minutes. Add 2 bunches thinly sliced baby turnips; cook 2 minutes, then drain. Cook 1 sliced onion and 1 chopped garlic clove in butter until soft. Add the vegetables, 1 tablespoon sugar, and salt and pepper; cook until glazed. Top with chopped parsley. Serve with lemon wedges.

PEAS AND TURNIPS WITH BACON AND DILL BUTTER

Steps:

• Mix 6 tablespoons butter and 3 tablespoons dill in small bowl to blend. Season with salt and pepper. (Dill butter can be made 2 days ahead; cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before using.)
• Sauté bacon in heavy large skillet over medium heat until brown and crisp. Using slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towels. (Can be made 2 hours ahead; let stand at room temperature.)
• Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add turnips and sauté until tender and golden, about 9 minutes. Add peas and dill butter and stir until peas are heated through, about 3 minutes. Stir in bacon. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon dill and serve.

BARLEY WITH BACON, PEAS AND DILL

Steps:

• Bring the barley, 3 1/2 cups water and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until the barley is chewy but tender, about 50 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the bacon in a single layer to a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and crisp, about 6 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the bacon with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain; reserve the bacon drippings in the skillet.
• Return the skillet to medium heat and melt the butter in the bacon drippings. Add the onion and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until deep golden brown, about 25 minutes. Add the peas and stir until heated through, about 1 minute.
• Drain any excess liquid from the barley. Stir the barley into the onion-pea mixture. Stir in the dill, lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with the bacon.
