method
1. Set up the steamer ready for use.
2. Prepare the mangetouts, taking care to pull off any strings along their edges. Rinse them, drain and steam for 3 minutes.
3. Heat the butter in a large frying pan and once the foam has subsided, stir-fry the mangetout for 3 - 4 minutes; they must remain crisp.
4. Season with a little salt and pepper and serve at once as a vegetable accompaniment to almost any dish.
Mangetout go particularly well with rich, rather fatty meats such as roast duck or goose.
