Pasta with Fresh Pea Sauce Time: however long it takes to get the water to boil and
cook the pasta
1 package fresh farfalle (about 8 -10 oz) or 1 1/2 cups dried
1 - 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen peas (no sauce - just naked peas) about 8 oz (220 gr)
1/3 cup chicken stock
snipped fresh basil or chives
Cook pasta according to package directions, drain and put into a serving bowl. Bring stock to boil and add peas. Cook for length of time on package. Puree peas in blender with enough stock to make thick sauce. If too thick add a bit of milk to thin. Pour over pasta, sprinkle with basil and/or chives and serve.
