Artichoke Ring with Green Peas

1 oz. flour
1 oz. butter
1/2 cup cream
1 teaspoon grated onion
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 egg yolks
1/2 cup fine cracker crumbs
2 cups artichoke hearts (I have found for this recipe that tinned artichokes are more successful than fresh ones)
Lemon juice
4 egg whites
Buttered green peas

Method: Make a thick white sauce with butter, flour and cream. Cook until thick, add grated onion and salt and allow to cool slightly, stir in four lightly beaten egg yolks, add crumbs and mashed artichoke hearts and lemon juice to taste. Beat the four egg whites until they are stiff and fold into the artichoke mixture. Pour the mixture into a buttered ring mould, set the mould in a pan of warm water and bake at 350 deg. for 45 minutes or until set. Remove the ring mould from the oven and allow to set a few minutes, unmould onto a heated platter and fill the centre with buttered green peas.
