Notes

• Fresh dill provides the best flavor, but dried dill may be substituted in smaller amounts.
• Avoid overcooking the peas to keep their bright green color.
• Baby Yukon Gold or red potatoes work especially well for this recipe.
• Pair with grilled tofu, roasted mushrooms, or a fresh salad for a complete vegetarian meal.
