Pasta with Spicy Pea Sauce

Directions

Place the peas in a large pan. Cover with cold water.

Bring to the boil and boil, uncovered for 25 minutes. Drain.

Heat oil in a pan.

Add onion and garlic and cook over a medium heat for 10 minutes.

Add the spices, stirring for 2 minutes.

Add the well drained peas, lemon juice and rind.

Stir to combine and cook over a low heat for 8 to 10 minutes.

Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Cook the pasta in a large quantity of boiling water until just tender. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water.

If the pea sauce seems too dry, add some pasta water to desired consistency, and mix well.

Drain the pasta and place on a large serving plate.

Pour sauce over the pasta and garnish with the coriander leaves.

Serve immediately.
