Peas in Curry Sauce

Ingredients:

• 2 (10 oz.) pkgs. frozen green peas
• 2 slices bacon
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1 large clove garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup finely chopped peanuts
• 2 tsp. freshly grated ginger
• 2 tsp. curry
• 1/4 tsp. dry mustard
• 1/2 tsp. cumin
• 1/2 tsp. coriander
• 2 tsp. flour
• 1/2 cup milk

Directions:

Rinse peas under running water to separate. Drain and reserve.

Fry bacon in 10 inch skillet until crisp. Remove and drain, crumble and reserve. Cook the onion, garlic, peanuts and ginger in the bacon fat over medium heat until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Add the spices and saute 1 minute. Stir in flour and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mix is bubbly.

Increase the heat and stir in the milk, add the peas, and heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Reduce heat. Cover and simmer until heated through. Sprinkle with the reserved bacon to garnish.
