When in doubt, stir fry!

The leftovers I had were some garlic thyme chicken thighs (need to use up my meat before veggie January!) I made in my pressure cooker and some butternut squash sticks I roasted in the oven with some maple syrup. I added in mushrooms, snow peas, soy sauce and sesame oil and topped it off with some toasted sesame seeds. Turned out fabulous

With mange tout/snow peas, they're best quickly stir fried. Because when you do that, they crisp up even if they're limp and have the nicest mouth feel.

For some reason we don't seem to see a lot of fresh garden peas. We either buy them frozen or canned. When they're canned, they're slightly squishy but still sweet so I like them in stews. I like the firmer frozen ones in stuff like fried rice.

They sell them in the pod in our veg shop (and the local supermarkets) when they are in season, but they can have been off the plant for a couple of days and have usually gone all bitter. We grow our own, then we know exactly how fresh they are.

I don;t like the squishiness of canned ones :(
