Pasta With Peas And Eggs Food

PASTA WITH PEAS

Steps:

• Warm the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until the onion has softened and is turning translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Add the peas and cook stirring frequently about 1 minute.
• Then add vegetable broth (or water), raise the heat, bring to a boil and stir in pasta and salt (I use 1 tsp of salt and then I adjust the seasoning at the end).
• Reduce the heat, cover with a lid, and cook your pasta in the starchy water. During the cooking time, you need to stir often until the water is absorbed, otherwise, it will stick to the bottom. The water should barely cover the pasta, but it's fine, add extra water gradually only if needed.
• Cook until ready but firm to the bite. Turn off the heat and stir in freshly grated parmesan cheese until melted. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
• Serve immediately with a drizzle of olive oil, black pepper, and extra parmesan cheese if you like. Enjoy!

GNOCCHI WITH PEAS AND EGG

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add eggs, reduce heat to medium, and simmer 6 minutes. Remove eggs; run under cold water to stop cooking, then peel.
• Return water in pot to a boil. Add gnocchi and cook until they float, 1 to 3 minutes. Add peas; return to a boil, then stir in arugula. Drain, reserving 3/4 cup pasta water.
• Melt butter in pot over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add cream, cheese, and 1/4 cup reserved pasta water and simmer, stirring, 1 minute. Add gnocchi mixture; toss to combine, then simmer 30 seconds more. Add additional pasta water, 1 tablespoon at a time, as needed to create a creamy sauce. Season with salt and pepper and serve with halved eggs, sprinkled with more cheese and pepper.

BACON CARBONARA PASTA

Steps:

• Cook the pasta in a large pot to one minute less than the directions on the box and keep 1/2 cup of pasta water to the side to drain pasta (do not rinse pasta).
• In a large skillet add the bacon and cook it until crisp then turn off the heat and remove the bacon with a slotted spoon then add the pasta and toss it in the bacon fat.
• Add the eggs, salt, pepper and Parmesan cheese to a large bowl and whisk well before adding slowly while tossing the hot pasta quickly to prevent it from scrambling.
• Add in 1/4 cup of the pasta water and peas, tossing again to create a saucy consistency to the pasta then topping with bacon before serving.

PASTA, PANCETTA AND PEAS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium heat. Add pasta and cook until al dente. Drain pasta, reserving 1 cup of pasta water.
• Meanwhile, saute pancetta in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until golden and crisp, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. In the same pan, saute onions until softened, about 5 minutes. Add peas and garlic and saute for 3 minutes. Stir in Parmesan, pasta and pancetta. Moisten pasta with some of the reserved pasta water. Toss to incorporate, season with salt and pepper, if necessary, and serve, sprinkled with lemon juice.

FOUR-CHEESE PASTA WITH PEAS AND HAM

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until very al dente, about 8 minutes, adding the peas in the last 2 minutes of cooking.
• Meanwhile, whisk the eggs, egg white, evaporated milk and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl.
• Drain the pasta and peas; wipe the pot dry and return the pasta and peas to the pot. Add the butter and stir to coat. Add the cheddar, mozzarella, fontina and the egg mixture. Place the pot over medium-low heat and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened, 8 to 10 minutes, adding the ham halfway through cooking (don't let the mixture boil or the eggs will scramble). Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the parmesan.
