Creamed Peas and Potatoes

This classic comfort dish is creamy, cozy, and wonderfully simple. Creamed Peas and Potatoes blend tender russet potatoes with sweet peas in a silky dill-scented cream sauce. It’s perfect as a holiday side or a weeknight warm-up—familiar, nostalgic, and oh-so-satisfying.

Ingredients

• 2 cups russet potatoes, diced into ½” cubes
• 1 cup high-quality heavy cream
• ½ cup frozen peas
• ½ medium onion, finely diced
• 1 tbsp unsalted butter
• ¼ tsp dried dill
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

In a medium saucepan, boil the diced potatoes in salted water until just fork-tender, about 8–10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

In the same saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until soft and translucent, about 4 minutes.

Stir in the cream, dill, salt, and pepper. Bring to a gentle simmer.

Add the peas and cooked potatoes back to the pan. Simmer everything together for 3–4 minutes, until warmed through and slightly thickened.

Adjust seasoning and serve hot.
