Did You Know? When Sir Walter Raleigh first brought potatoes to the court of Queen Elizabeth I, there seems to have been a lack of communication. The cooks tossed out the tubers and boiled the stems and leaves. Everyone who partook became deathly ill and potatoes were banned from the Royal kitchen for a long time!
1-pound fresh lima beans
4-5 potatoes, peeled and diced
2 cups milk
2 Tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
dash pepper
Boil the lima beans in water to cover, for 15 minutes.
Add potatoes and continue boiling until both are tender.
Drain and add milk and butter.
Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
