Ingredients

1 1/2 cups fresh pearl onions
2 cups fresh or frozen peas
1 tablespoon margarine or butter
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon onion powder

2 Place onions back into the pot. Add peas and fill with just enough water to cover. Simmer until tender, about 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl.
3 Melt margarine in the same pot over medium-high heat. Add cream, salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder; bring to a boil. Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Add peas and onions and stir until coated.
