Wait wait wait wait wait ... you folks in Britain call snow peas WHAT?
Noodles with Mushrooms and Mangetouts (snow peas in American) are #RecipeOfTheDay! It’s a #vegetarian recipe, but if you don’t use egg noodles, but just regular ones, it is easily #vegan. Eat as a side dish or devour on its own! www.nigella.com/recipes/nood...
This is as simple a stir-fry as you could get, but — in my book — all the better for it. And, of course, you can build on as you wish. While it’s wonderful as is for a side, do add more mushrooms and ...

Akiva I am very upset to learn this fact.
Do they also use "mangepois" for a mix of anything and everything available?
Is that French for eat-alls?
Always amazed that the replies to a post about the differences between British and American food are some of the most unwarrantedly insulting things I ever see on this site 😂 Is there something about US people on BSky that’s selecting for “any opportunity to insult the British”?
British people love tossing in French vegtable words; see also “aubergine”
Don't the brits also call a turnip a "swede"?
