Instructions

1. Cook the fusilli in salted water following the package time until al dente. Drain, keeping 1 ½ cups of the pasta water.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for about 1 more minute until fragrant.
3. Add the thawed peas (keeping a couple of tablespoons aside for serving), the basil and 1 cup of the pasta water. Simmer for 10 minutes.
4. Blend the sauce with an immersion blender until smooth. Strain it for an extra creamy texture.
5. Add the drained pasta, salt and pepper to the skillet and toss until well coated. Stir in more of the reserved pasta water, up to ½ cup, to loosen the sauce if you like.
6. Stir in the reserved whole peas and the Parmesan until well combined. Serve topped with basil if you like.
