Ingredients
Preparation method
Preparing the base and boiling the pasta
Bring a large pot of water to a boil with a teaspoon of sea salt. When the water comes to a boil, add the fusilli pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente (about 9-10 minutes). Reserve a cup of the pasta cooking water before draining.
Meanwhile, finely chop the yellow onion and crush the two garlic cloves. In a deep pan, heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat and sauté the onion for 3-4 minutes until translucent and sweet, then add the garlic for another 1 minute until fragrant.
Preparing the sauce and assembling
Add the frozen peas to the pan over the onion and garlic, along with 100 ml of the reserved hot pasta water. Simmer covered over medium heat for 5-6 minutes, until the peas are tender and vibrant green.
Chef's tip
For an even fresher flavor, you can add a little grated lemon zest at the end along with the basil.
The starchy water reserved from boiling the pasta is the secret to an authentic creamy Italian sauce, without adding cream.
