Description :

A fast recipe, we make it very often in these months, it’s fast, delicate and perfect as a starter or side dish! CALORIES – 80 cals for every 100 grams of peas – 661 cals for 100 grams of pancetta GLUTEN FREE - do not add pancetta

Instructions :

Heat the olive oil in a saucepan. Add the finely diced onion, the garlic clove and the pancetta. Sautè for a couple of minutes, then add the peas. After about 10 minutes, add 250 ml (1 cups) of water and continue cooking for 10 minutes or until the peas are tender, cover with lid. If necessary add a little more water although the finished peas should have very little liquid. Taste the peas before adding salt and pepper, as the pancetta will flavour the peas.

Serve hot or at room temperature.
