Ravioli With Lemon Peas And Pancetta Food

PANCETTA AND PEA LINGUINE

Steps:

• Bring a pan of lightly salted water to the boil and add in the pasta.
• To a preheated, thick bottomed frying pan add the pancetta. Do not add in oil as the pancetta will release oil as it is cooking. Fry until lightly crispy.
• Once the pancetta has cooked through remove it from the pan with a slotted spoon, and place it to one side. Leaving behind the pancetta oil in the pan.
• Add the finely sliced shallots to the pancetta oil and fry until opaque.
• Add the glass of wine to the shallots. You should hear a satisfying sizzle as the wine hits the pan. Reduce the heat so the wine mixture simmers and leave this until the wine has reduced by 2/3rds its original volume.
• Now add in the pancetta, creme fraiche, peas, parmesan (reserving some for the garnish at the end) and a good few grinds of black pepper and stir thoroughly together. Leave the sauce to simmer and thicken slightly, 3-4 minutes. If the sauce over thickens you can thin it down by adding a small spoonful of pasta water.
• Drain the pasta and spoon into warmed pasta dishes. Pour over the sauce as desired or mix the sauce with the pasta and then serve with a sprinkling of the remaining parmesan. Goes well with a lightly dressed green salad. ENJOY!

RAVIOLI WITH PEAS AND LEMON BUTTER SAUCE RECIPE

Steps:

• Before we begin, let's talk about cooking pasta. It seems simple but most people do it wrong. So here is what you should be doing: for every quarter pound of pasta, you'll need 1 quart of water. And for every quart of water, you want to add 1 tbsp of salt. Never ever add oil to your water.
• Bring the water to a raging boil. Add in the salt and then add in the pasta. Cook as long as directed by the package of ravioli. While the pasta is cooking, melt the butter in a large frying pan. Add a pinch of salt if the butter is unsalted.
• Add in the lemon juice and the fresh peas. Fresh peas take but a few seconds to cook.
• When the pasta is done cooking, using a slotted spoon, scoop out the raviolis and transfer them directly to the fry pan with the sauce.
• It works best if you can time it so the peas are cooked when the pasta is done. The liquid from the pasta will make the butter sauce even creamier, so don't worry about the raviolis being wet when you add them to the butter.
• Cook everything for a few seconds and then plate with fresh Parmesan cheese and salt and pepper.
