Snow Peas (Mangetout): a Quick, Crunchy Side Dish
Snow peas (mangetout) are a little-known vegetable, similar to green beans, that offers lots of possibilities in the kitchen.
They cook much faster than green beans and work well griddled or fried, giving a crunchy texture and a very pleasant flavour that reminds me of green asparagus.
This time I sautéed them for 3 minutes in olive oil and served them as a side to a grilled chicken breast.
I recommend you try them. You can find them in many markets and greengrocers (at least in Barcelona), and they cost between 4 and 8 euros per kilo.
