Sautéed Ramps, Sugar Snap Peas, and Pattypan Squash
Sauteed Ramps, Sugar Snap Peas, and Pattypan Squash
Recipe created by Rori Trovato
Make pattypan squash as fast as you can, with flash-sautéed ramps and sugar snap peas, then finish it off with a tangle of fresh pea tendrils and a handful of toasted walnuts.

This recipe is part of our fresh spring dinner party menu.

Servings: Serves 4–6
Ingredients
  • 1 bunch ramps (about 1/2 pound) or scallions
  • 1 pound sugar snap peas
  • 2 Tbsp. walnut oil or olive oil
  • 1/2 pound baby yellow pattypan squash or 2 medium yellow squash , chopped
  • 1 Tbsp. finely grated orange zest
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1/2 cup loosely packed pea tendrils
  • 1/4 cup toasted walnuts , chopped
Directions
Trim roots from ramps; finely chop white bulbs. Slice green leaves into 1/4-inch strips. String sugar snap peas, cut off stem ends, and leave whole.

Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add white part of ramps and cook 1 minute. Add peas and pattypan squash; sauté until just tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in zest, salt and pepper to taste, and ramp greens. Remove from heat and stir until greens slightly wilt. Add pea tendrils and walnuts; serve.
