Dear Kevin, Do you mix in the peas after you've removed the potatoes or do you cook them both with the cream mixture? Thanks.

Here's my first contribution to the list. It's easy to make, and with a little salt and pepper to taste, it's quite good. Ingredients: 2 pounds small new creamer or other small potato 1/4 cup butter 1/4 cup all purpose flour 2 1/4 cups whole milk 1/2 cup whipping/heavy cream 1 - 16 ounce package frozen peas, thawed and drained Salt and pepper to taste Directions: Cook potatoes in pot of boiling water until just tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and cool. Cut potatoes in half. Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over low heat. Add flour; whisk until mixture bubbles and thickens (do not brown), about 3 minutes. Gradually whisk in the milk. Bring to simmer, whisking often (sauce will be thick). Simmer until very thick, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Mix in cream. Season with salt and pepper. Mix in potatoes. Mix peas into sauce and cook over medium-low heat until vegetables are heated through, stirring often, about 6 minutes. Note: My girlfriend and I made this recipe last night, and it turned out excellent, just as I remember. She suggested adding bacon bits to it, and maybe some parmesan cheese. I never thought of that, but it wouldn't hurt.
