Spaghetti with Peas, Pumpkin Seeds and Basil

This is ludicrously fast to make, in fact it can be made in the time it takes to cook the pasta. The toasted pumpkin seeds are delicious and go perfectly with the garlicky, oily peas.

Recipe

Cook the pasta in plenty of salted boiling water. Toast the pumpkin seeds in a dry pan until golden. Remove and keep to one side. Cook the leeks and garlic slowly in the olive oil for a minute or so. Add the peas and season well, cook gently for a further 10mins. When the pasta is cooked, stir it into the peas with the pumpkin seeds and basil. Sprinkle with parmesan.
