A super healthy side, these crunchy-sugar-snap-peas(脆甜豌豆cuì tián wāndòu) tossed with sesame seeds and lemon zest will complement any festive main course.
We have served this bright green, colorful dish at our family gatherings for decades. They are a great addition to Christmas dinner and perfectly easy to make, so you can spend that extra time with your loved ones.
If you prefer them raw, simply skip the poaching process. They are also great to make alone and snack away.
Happy holidays, everyone
