Garden Pail Fettucine With Peas And Pig
- 1 cup shelled green peas
- 1/4 cup diced guanciale (or prosciutto)
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 shallot, chopped
- 1 spring onion thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- Pecorino cheese
- A big handful of fettucine
- sea salt and black pepper
- Add the butter to a hot pan large enough to contain the pasta and the finished sauce. When the butter melts add the guanciale (or prosciutto).
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add kosher or sea salt.
- Once the guanciale begins to resemble bacon spoon off excess fat and add the chopped shallot, just to color. Add the cream and stir with a wooden spoon.
- Begin cooking the pasta in salted boiling water.
- Add the peas to the cream and pig and season with salt and pepper. Keep your sauce simmering but not boiling.
- When the fettucine is cooked to almost al dente transfer it directly to the simmering sauce to finish.
- Grate a generous amount of pecorino over the pasta. Taste sauce for seasoning and serve.
