Heat oil, add onion and garlic and cook until translucent about 3-4 minutes. Add pumpkin seeds and 1/4 cup water. Bring to a boil and cook 4 minutes. Cool.
In a blender combine the rest of the ingredients including onion mixture but not the peas.
Blend until smooth. Return skillet over medium heat. Add Alfred sauce and another 1/4 cup water (use the water to rinse blender) Bring to a boil. Stir frequently to avoid lumps. It will thicken.
