PREPARATION:

1. Melt the butter with the oil in a heavy based frying pan over a medium heat. Add the shallots and cook for 2 minutes until starting to soften, taking care not to brown them.

2. Pour in the white wine and stock, bring to simmering point and cook gently for 5 minutes. Add the asparagus and cook for 3 minutes, then add the frozen peas and cook for a further 2 minutes. Add the creme fraiche and stir through well.
