This is a great side dish of fresh snow peas and carrots cut into matchsticks, I like to serve it with an equally refreshing lemon vinaigrette

recipe, photograph and presentation all created by Peggy Bucholz


Recipe Type: snow peas, carrots, vegetable, side dish

Total Time: 15 min
Prep Time: 15 min
Yield: 2 cups
Servings: 2

Ingredients:

1 medium-size carrot, peeled, cut into 3-inch matchsticks (julienne)
3 ounces fresh snow peas, trimmed, cut into matchsticks (julienne)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
1/4 teaspoon fresh Thyme leaves

Instructions:

Place carrots and snow peas in a saucepan of boiling salted water, immediately drain and plunge into an ice bath; drain again and put into a bowl. Set aside.

Put olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, pepper and thyme in a small bowl, whisk to blend and pour a small amount over vegetables, toss lightly and serve chilled with the main course.

Note: I use my mandoline to prepare the carrots, if you do not have a mandoline a sharp knife works good too.

Wine recommendation: Sauvignon Blanc; Chardonnay; Pinot Noir
