Instructions

1. Add the sliced shallots to a bowl with 1/2 cup of the cream. Let the shallots soak for 15 minutes.
2. Add the flour and cayenne pepper to a bowl. Season the flour generously with salt and pepper.
3. Add the oil to a skillet over medium heat, you want enough oil to totally coat the bottom of the skillet. Drain the shallots from the cream and dust in the flour mixture, shaking off the excess. Once the oil is hot, add the shallots and fry until brown and crispy, just about 2 minutes on each side. Remove the fried shallots to a paper towel lined plate and season with salt.
4. Start a pot of water to boil for the peas. Once the water is boiling, add a couple of tablespoons of salt to season the water and then pour in the frozen peas. Bring the water back to a boil and cook the peas for 7-8 minutes until tender.
5. Drain the peas and return them back to the pot over low heat. Add the Boursin cheese and stir into the peas until it’s melted. Next add the parmesan cheese, the remaining 1/2 cup of the cream and fresh nutmeg. Stir to combine and heat until warmed through.
6. Serve the peas in a casserole dish with the fried shallots on top for garnish.
