Instructions

3 steps
  1. 1

    Half fill a large saucepan with water, add a large pinch of salt and bring to the boil. Add the pasta and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  2. 2

    Stir in the broccoli and peas and boil for a further 2 minutes, then drain in a colander and return to the pan.

  3. 3

    Add the crème fraîche, lemon zest and Parmesan and season generously with plenty of freshly ground black pepper and a little more salt. Toss together over a low heat for 20-30 seconds, or until the crème fraîche is hot, then serve sprinkled with a little extra cheese, if you like.
