Snow Pea side dish

INGREDIENTS

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• ½ onion, sliced thinly
• 1 whole green garlic, chopped
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• 2 hand fulls of snow peas
• 1 tablespoon cilantro, chopped (dried is not as OK here, but you could probably use it too)

DIRECTIONS

Heat the olive oil in a medium-sized 8- to 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and sprinkle with a pinch each of salt and pepper. Sauté the onions until softened and golden brown, about 20-25 minutes.

Add green garlic and saute for 2 minutes. Then add peas and sauté until they have turned bright green in color, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the cilantro. Season with additional salt and pepper, to taste, and serve.
