- 700g (1½ lbs) green peas, cut lengthwise
- 700g (1½ lbs) snow peas, cut a little on the slant.
- Vinaigrette:
- ½kg (1 lb) butter
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- salt
- allspice
Instructions
- Brown the butter. Mix in vinegar, salt and allspice. Mix with beans and fish.
- Serve: Slice some red onion onions thinly and marinate them in 1-2-3 brine with some whole white and black pepper corns and bay leaves.

Notes
Great recipe for leftover lutefisk from the Christmas table. If you can´t find or like lutefisk you can use cod instead.
