Minted snap peas.

So many ways to make these, but this is basically Martha's recipe. A nice simple version. Sometimes it's good to use olive oil in place of butter

1 lb of peas
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon finely chopped mint
1 tsp Salt and pepper

Bring water 1/2 tsp salt and butter to boil in a large pan on high heat. Add peas, cover and cook for a few minutes then remove lid, toss and allow water to cook off over medium heat for a few minutes. Toss with mint and remaining salt and pepper to taste.
