2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped shallot
1 cup chopped peeled potato
3 to 4 sprigs fresh thyme
1 medium clove garlic, minced
Pinch of grated nutmeg
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Number Of Ingredients 6

Coarse salt
1 pound (about 1 cup) English peas, shelled
1 pound baby spinach, trimmed and well washed
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 large shallots, thinly sliced
Freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare an ice water bath; set aside. Line a baking sheet with a cooling rack; set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add a generous amount of salt and the peas. Cook until bright green, 3 to 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to ice water bath to stop the peas from cooking. Drain, shaking off excess liquid; set aside. Add the spinach to the boiling water and cook, just until wilted, about 1 minute. Drain, squeezing out excess moisture, and transfer to wire rack to dry.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the shallots and cook, stirring frequently, until translucent, but not brown, about 2 minutes. Stir in peas, and cook 1 minute. Add the spinach, tossing to combine, and heat through, 1 to 2 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you save time and avoid scrambling.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables and herbs will give your dish the best flavor. If you can, try to buy organic produce.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and bland. Cook them just until they are tender-crisp.
  • Season your dish to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste until you are happy with the flavor.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The vegetables will start to lose their flavor and texture if they sit for too long.
