Creamed Peas- Grandma's way

stove top baked beans,  fried potatoes and onions, creamed peas, stewed tomatoes and bread, Polish sausage and sauerkraut.
This is the way my family makes creamed peas. There is no cornstarch or flour. And we use canned sweet peas. I think they go perfectly with the meal in the photo.

Ingredients:
2cans of sweet peas
1Tbl. butter
1/4tsp. salt
1/4tsp. pepper
1 sweet pea can, full of water

Add everything to a sauce or saute pan, including the can of water. Bring to a boil, on medium heat. Continue to cook, until most of the water has evaporated. about 30 minutes.

The peas become very soft. With the back of a spoon, crush about 1/3 of the peas.

                              Stir vigorously, to crush more peas. Serve.
