Puree of Green Peas

Put some green peas in a saucepan with a very small quantity of water and boil them until tender, then pass the whole through a fine hair-sieve. Put the puree in a saucepan with a little broth and stir it over the fire until boiling. Move the saucepan to the side of the fire, put in one-half teaspoonful of sugar, a moderate-sized lump of butter, and salt to taste. Cut some slices of bread, shape them into small croutons and fry them in butter. When lightly browned drain the croutons, put them in a deep dish, and pour the puree over them. Serve it with a separate dish of boiled rice.
