Creamed Peas and Potatoes

Ingredients

  • 2 large potatoes
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • 1 c cream
  • 1 c milk
  • 3 c frozen peas
  • 1 1/2 tsp chicken bouillon granules
  • pepper

Directions

  1. If you are using new potatoes you just boil them in water until tender. If you are using regular potatoes, peel them and cut them into large, 1 1/2 inch cubes.
  2. Boil in salted water until tender.
  3. Meanwhile, prepare a basic white sauce by melting the butter in a 2 qt sauce pan.
  4. Whisk in the flour and then the cream and milk.
  5. Cook over medium heat, whisking until thick and smooth.
  6. With a wooden spoon, stir in the chicken bullion and the frozen peas and cook until heated through.
  7. By this time your potatoes are pretty close to being done, drain the potatoes and added them to the white sauce.
  8. Stir in pepper if desired. Do not over cook.
