There is no need to be too precise with any of these ingredients

Ingredienti per 2

200g (7 oz) of wholewheat penne

240g (8 e 1/2 once) canned artichokes, roughly sliced

a handful (circa 10) sun dried tomatoes (ans some of the oil from the jar)

a handful of pine nuts, toasted

una manciata di olive

2 spicchi d'aglio, tritato

una manciata di piselli surgelati

olio d'oliva

sale e pepe

half to a teaspoon of dried chilli flakes

mezzo cucchiaino di origano secco

foglie di insalata per servire (opzionale)

Metodo

Add the pasta to boiling salted water and cook for 9 verbale (o secondo le istruzioni sulla confezione). Puoi guardare il la migliore bomboletta a pressione qui per trovarne uno che possa aiutarti in questo processo. Add the frozen peas to the pasta water for the last 4 verbale

In the meantime add a splash of olive oil (there will be more from the sun dried tomatoes) and begin to heat gently.

Add the sliced artichokes, the chilli flakes and oregano and season with salt and pepper. Mescolare a cappotto

Using scissors snip in the sun dried tomatoes (so that the oil goes in too) and add a splash more oil from the jar

Aggiungere l'aglio, being careful not to burn it. Once everything is sizzling add some of the pasta cooking water (just a couple of tablespoons full at first) to the artichoke and sun dried tomato pan to stop it browning

Add the olives to the artichokes

When the pasta is cooked until al dente, drain and add the pasta and peas to the artichoke pan

Stir everything to coat, adding a little more oil if necessary

Add the pine nuts

Serve immediately with salad leaves (opzionale)
