Modo de preparo

1. Peel the pea pods one by one and pile the peas into a large bowl.
2. Finely chop the half onion and set it aside.
3. Heat a large frying pan over medium-low heat. Add 4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and, once warm, add the chopped onion.
4. Sauté the onion for 5 minutes, until soft and golden brown.
5. Add the peas to the pan with the onion and oil, and stir for about 6 minutes.
6. Bring 5 litres of water to the boil in a large pot. Once boiling, add 1 tablespoon of rock salt.
7. Boil the pasta for half the time given on the packet (about 6 minutes for the author's pasta). Stir briefly so it doesn't stick.
8. While the pasta boils, keep stirring the peas. Pull the mint leaves off the stems and add them to the pan, stirring through.
9. Reserve some pasta water. Drain the pasta and add it to the pan with the peas, then add a few scoops of pasta water until the pasta is half covered.
10. Stir the pasta and peas continuously for 6 minutes to form a creamy sauce.
11. Once the pasta is cooked, sprinkle with pecorino cheese and more fresh mint, then toss to make the sauce creamier.
