Instructions

1

a) Boil a full kettle.

b) Add the linguine and cook until tender, 10-12 mins.

b) Stir in the creme fraiche, sun-dried tomato paste, veg stock paste, lemon zest and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount).

c) Bring to the boil and simmer until reduced slightly, 2-3 mins.

5

a) Add the cooked linguine and peas to the sauce. Toss to coat and simmer until piping hot, 1-2 mins. 

b) Stir in the lemon juice and half the cheese, then remove from the heat.

c) Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a splash of water if it's a little dry.

6

a) Share the linguine between your bowls.

b) Sprinkle over the remaining cheese and top with a handful of rocket.

Enjoy!
