Peas with Lettuce and Baked Potato with Truffle Oil

This pea recipe is from Nigella Lawson...

Ingredients


  • 3 small or 2 fat scallions, finely sliced
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 drop garlic-infused oil (or any oil really)
  • 1 Little Gem (Butterhead) lettuce, shredded
  • 2 cups frozen petits pois
  • 1/2 cup hot chicken stock (concentrate or cube and hot water is fine)
Cook the scallions in the butter and oil until soft. Stir in the shredded lettuce, and when it is wilted add the frozen peas and stock.
Cook at a robust simmer, uncovered, until everything is tender and the liquid flavorful and reduced.

Baked Potato with Truffle Oil, Sour Cream and Chives
Ingredients
Potato
Black Truffle Oil
Sea Salt
Pepper
Sour Cream
Chopped Chives
For the baked potato...I know its a bit ridiculous to post a baked potato recipe, so I'll just describe my variation here...:)  First oven at 375, coat the potatoes with a thin layer of Black Truffle Oil, Sea Salt and Pepper.  Cook about an hour.  I made a mix of sour cream and chives to serve on top of an opened baked potato.
