Spring has arrived, and with it a load of tasty ingredients to make the most of!
Ingredients for 4 people- 400 g of Armando tubes
- 1000 g of peas
- 4 cloves of garlic
- Half a bunch of asparagus
- Chili pepper to taste
- Extra virgin olive oil to taste
- Spring onion to taste
- 8 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese
- Half a carton of fresh cream
To start, chop the spring onion and sauté it in a pan with the garlic and chili pepper.
In another pan, sauté the asparagus stalks, previously washed and sliced. Repeat the same procedure with the asparagus tips.
Next, blanch the peas in unsalted water and, once they are soft, blend them with a little salt, extra virgin olive oil, and some of the cooking water until you obtain a smooth cream.
Cook the pasta and finish cooking it in the pan with the asparagus, also adding the pea cream and a ladle of the pasta cooking water.
To prepare the Parmesan cream, dissolve four tablespoons of Parmesan in the slightly warm fresh cream (it should be just below boiling).
Stir the pasta off the heat and add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
Finally, plate with the asparagus tips and the Parmesan cream.
Enjoy your meal!
