Sugar Snap Peas With Lemon Ricotta Mint And Parsley Recipes

Steps:

• Remove and discard the stem end and string from each sugar snap pod.
• Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the sugar snap peas, salt and pepper and saute, tossing occasionally for 3 to 5 minutes, until the sugar snap peas are crisp tender.
• Place the sugar snap peas in a serving bowl, sprinkle with sea salt and serve.

Steps:

• Place peas in pot and add 1 inch water. Add a little salt, a teaspoon of sugar and a couple of pats of butter to the pot. Bring water to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer. Cover and cook until peas are tender but still bright green, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat. Add chopped parsley. Transfer peas to a serving dish.

Steps:

• 1. Line a fine-mesh sieve with cheesecloth or a clean dish towel and set over a bowl. Place ricotta in sieve and refrigerate overnight, until cheese loses much of its water content and thickens. 2. In a small bowl, whisk ricotta and 2 tablespoons oil until smooth. Season with kosher salt and pepper to taste. Continue to whisk until fluffy and creamy. Set aside. 3. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Blanch peas in boiling water until bright green, 30-40 seconds. Drain and transfer to a large bowl of salted ice water. Once peas are chilled, drain and spread out on a clean dish towel to dry. 4. Rinse large bowl and dry. Add peas, scallions, parsley, mint, ¼ teaspoon pepper, lemon juice and remaining 2 tablespoons oil, and stir to combine. 5. To serve, divide ricotta evenly among four plates and top each serving with ½ cup peas. Finish with a drizzle of oil and a sprinkle of sea salt.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Spread sugar snap peas in a single layer on a medium baking sheet, and brush with olive oil. Sprinkle with shallots, thyme, and kosher salt.
• Bake 6 to 8 minutes in the preheated oven, until tender but firm.

Steps:

• Place 1 in. of water in a large skillet. Add peas and sugar; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until peas are crisp-tender, 4-5 minutes; drain. Stir in mint and butter.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, toss together the radishes, peas, ricotta and mint.
• Using a knife or a mortar and pestle, make a paste of the garlic and salt. Place in a small bowl and add the lemon juice and balsamic vinegar and stir well to combine. Drizzle in the olive oil, stirring constantly, and add pepper to taste.
• Pour dressing over salad and toss well to combine. Taste and add more salt and pepper if necessary.

Steps:

• Stir together the ricotta and lemon zest. Toss together the snap peas, parsley, mint, salt, pepper, and oil. Dollop about ¼ cup of the ricotta mixture onto each of 4 plates. Top each plate with about 1⅓ cups of the snap pea mixture. Drizzle with additional oil, if desired.
