Recipe ideas for pea shoots?

We have gotten bunches of pea shoots in our farm box several times now. I like peas a lot and the shoots taste just like whole peas, but I’m not sure how to cook them. They suggested sauteing them with olive oil, chili flakes, and salt. I tried that the first time and it came out ok but I found the stalks too hard and chewy. Decided next time I need to seek out a new recipe. Some internet searches yielded:

  • A recipe on Epicurious, a site I always have good cooking luck with. Another salad, this one with sesame seeds, which I love.
  • A stir fry. This has potential too, maybe with different mushrooms.

Any ideas, or previous experience cooking these?
