Sugar snap peas with butter and mint

Side Serves 4 10 min

Sweet and crisp sugar snaps are best eaten raw, in stir-fries, or lightly steamed or boiled. Quick-boiled and buttery, this easy side goes very well with lamb, pork chops or salmon.

Cook's notes

Sugar snap peas are eaten whole but you can top and tail them if necessary.
