This is the only recipe I could find on line:
ENGLISH PEA PIE
Cook peas until tender. Season with butter. Add enough flour to make a thick sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste. Pour in pan to cover with pie crust and bake. Brush butter on top.
That's it -- no quantities, no baking time, no nothing. Personally, I'd cook about three cups of fresh peas in a very small amount of water, then drain and reserve what's left of the cooking liquid when they're tender.
Cook a tablespoon of flour and butter together to get rid of the raw flour taste, then add the reserved water to make a sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
Put the peas in a pie pan, gently mix in the sauce, cover with the pie crust, and bake at 350 degrees until brown.
Let me know how this works out for you, if you try it.
