Instructions
- Finely chop the onion and wilt it in a high-sided pot with the olive oil for about 2 to 3 minutes.
- When the onion has become clear, add the smoked bacon and cook it over medium-high heat so that the fat melts off; be careful not to burn it. Add some basil.
- At this point add the peas, a few basil leaves, salt and pepper to taste and sauté over medium heat for 3 minutes.
- Then add about 3 cups of vegetable broth.
- The broth should cover the peas entirely.
- Let it cook for about 15 to 20 minutes, adding more broth if necessary.
- At this point you can add the pasta, adjust the salt (if necessary) and cook according to the cooking time indicated on the package, stirring often and adding broth gradually if needed. The pasta and peas should not be too watery!
- When the pasta is cooked, add 1 drizzle of olive oil and grated parmesan cheese with the heat off and stir well.
- Serve piping hot with parmesan shavings on top.
Notes
- Note: The cooking time of the peas may vary depending on the type of peas you choose (fresh or frozen), so don't hesitate to extend the cooking time if you need to.
