Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 g Gomiti rigati pasta
- 200 g Frozen green peas
- 30 g Unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 150 ml Heavy cream
- 50 g Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
- 100 ml Pasta cooking water
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gomiti rigati pasta and cook according to the package instructions (about 8-10 minutes) until al dente. Reserve 100 ml of pasta cooking water before draining.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
Add the frozen green peas to the skillet and toss to coat them in the mixture. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and slightly softened.
Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Add the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to the skillet. Stir until the cheese has melted and the sauce becomes creamy.
Add the drained pasta to the skillet and toss to coat it evenly in the sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add small amounts of the reserved pasta water until it reaches your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if using. Serve hot and enjoy your Gomiti Rigati Con Piselli!
