Bring to a boil, then simmer until fork-tender, about 12\u201315 minutes. Drain well, then let them sit in the pot for a minute so excess moisture cooks off. Add the butter and start mashing. Once mostly smooth, add the milk a little at a time until you get the texture you like. Season with salt and pepper Melt the butter in a small pan over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring, for about 1\u20132 minutes until it smells a little nutty but not browned. Slowly pour in the chicken broth while whisking so you don\u2019t get lumps. Let it simmer gently for a few minutes until it thickens to a smooth, pourable gravy. Season with salt and pepper. Add soy Melt the butter in a small pan over medium heat. Add the shallot and a pinch of salt, and cook 2\u20133 minutes until soft and slightly sweet, not browned. Add the frozen peas (no need to thaw) and cook, tossing, until heated through, about 3\u20134 minutes. Turn off the heat and add the lemon juice and a little zest. Toss to coat.
