Directions: |
Directions:Scrub the potatoes. Cut them into bite-sized pieces. Place potatoes into a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Then reduce the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes. Add peas and cook for 5 minutes more. Check and make sure the potatoes are tender. Remove from heat. Drain the water and set aside.
Dissolve the flour into cold milk (I use a blender) Stir until the flour and milk are completely smooth. Pour the milk, flour, and broth into a medium pan. On medium heat bring to a boil while constantly stirring and scraping the bottom of the pan so the white sauce does not scorch. Cook until thickened
Add the potatoes and peas. Season with additional salt and pepper.
