  3. In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until soft and translucent.
  4. Pour in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally for about 3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  5. Gently fold in the drained potatoes and peas, stirring to coat. Add dried dill, salt, and pepper to taste, and heat for about 2 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat, serve in a dish, and enjoy your comforting plate of Creamed Peas and Potatoes.
