For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg or a sprig of fresh thyme to the cream sauce. If you prefer a richer sauce, you can substitute half-and-half or heavy cream for the milk. Fresh peas are best, but frozen peas can be used in a pinch. Add them directly to the boiling water without thawing. Ensure the potatoes are cooked until tender but not mushy. Overcooked potatoes will fall apart in the cream sauce.
