Stir in the peas and spring onions for 3-5 mins more until the peas are defrosted and cooked through, then season and serve.

- Discard outer, darker, tougher leaves from the leeks, then halve each into 2 shorter lengths and rinse under cold running water.

Cover and simmer for 15 mins until almost tender. Tip in the peas, bring back to the boil and simmer for a further 5 mins until the veg is cooked. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the leeks, peas and garlic to a warm serving dish, season with extra pepper, drizzle over the olive oil and finish with a scattering of thyme leaves.

- Preheat your oven to 400F and chop your leeks. Add parchment paper to a large baking tray and add your chopped leeks. Top the leeks with the avocado oil, garlic powder, chili flakes, and salt and pepper. Then, use your hands to evenly coat the leeks with the seasoning. Add to the oven and cook for 10-15 minutes, making sure to stop and stir the leeks at the 8-minute mark. Once cooked, set aside.
- While the leeks are cooking, add your almond/soy milk, vegan butter, lemon juice, lemon zest, nutritional yeast, and garlic powder to a large saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Next, add in your pasta and frozen/fresh peas and stir. Cook about 5 more minutes until the peas are cooked and the pasta is warmed and evenly coated in sauce.
