SUGAR SNAP PEAS WITH YOGURT, FETA AND DILL



Sugar Snap Peas With Yogurt, Feta and Dill image

Much of the appeal of sugar snap peas comes from their juicy, sweet crunch, which means you'll want to take care when blanching them. They turn from perfectly crisp-tender to soft in seconds. The key is to have a bowl of salted ice water next to the stove and a slotted spoon at the ready. The salt in the ice water seasons the peas, and the ice stops them from overcooking. In this savory salad, they're tossed with a garlicky dressing for brightness, and a creamy feta-yogurt sauce for richness. Serve them with crusty bread as a summery appetizer, or as a side dish for grilled fish or meats.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for water and to taste
1/2 pound sugar snap peas, trimmed (about 3 cups)
1 garlic clove, finely grated or minced
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, plus more to taste
Freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 cup thinly sliced fennel, or use radish or cucumber
1/2 packed cup roughly chopped fresh dill, or use a combination of dill and fennel fronds
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1/3 cup plain whole-milk yogurt (if using Greek, thin it down with milk or water until pourable)
1/2 cup crumbled feta (about 2 ounces)
1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
Torn soft herbs, such as mint, basil, parsley, tarragon, chives, cilantro or a combination, for serving
Crusty bread, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Have ready a bowl of well-salted ice water and a slotted spoon next to the stove. Drop peas into boiling water and cook until crisp-tender, about 1 minute. Use the spoon to transfer peas to ice water to cool completely. Drain well and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
  • When cool enough to handle, put the peas on a cutting board and slice them in half, crosswise.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together garlic and lemon juice. Stir in salt and pepper. Whisk in 3 tablespoons olive oil. Add the halved peas, fennel, dill and scallions, and toss well. Taste and add more lemon juice, olive oil or salt if needed.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the yogurt, 1/4 cup feta, lemon zest, and the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Season with salt, pepper and lemon juice, to taste.
  • Spread the yogurt on a serving platter, and spoon the peas on top. Scatter remaining 1/4 cup feta on top, drizzle with more oil, and top with herbs. Serve as a side dish or scooped onto crusty bread as an appetizer.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh peas when they are in season.
  • If you are using frozen peas, thaw them before cooking.
  • To make sure the peas are cooked evenly, bring the water to a boil before adding them.
  • Cook the peas for just a few minutes, until they are tender but still have a slight crunch.
  • Drain the peas well before adding them to the other ingredients.
  • Serve the peas immediately or chill them for later use.
  • Garnish the peas with fresh dill or mint before serving.

Conclusion:

Dilly Sweet Peas is a classic summer dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of sweet peas, fresh dill, and a hint of sweetness is simply irresistible. This dish is perfect for a potluck, picnic, or any other casual gathering. It is also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables!
