INGREDIENTS
- 2 tablespoons Kosher Salt
- 12 ounces Spaghetti
- 1 cup thawed, frozen peas ; divided
- 4 ounces fresh goat cheeses
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 1/2 cup Extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup fresh mint ; chopped, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 3/4 teaspoons Black pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
In a large pot, bring 4 quarters water to a boil; stir in 2 tablespoons kosher salt and spaghetti. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the cooking water, then drain the pasta and return it to the pot. In a medium bowl, use a fork to mash 1/2 cup peas to a coarse puree. Add goat cheese, lime juice, lime zest, olive oil, 1/4 cup mint, salt and pepper. Using the fork, continue to mach until well combined; set aside. Add the goat cheese mixture, another 1/2 cup peas and 3/4 cup of the reserved cooking water to the drained pasta. Toss until evenly coated. Add the remaining cooking water to the sauce 1 tablespoon at a time as needed until the sauce is creamy and clings to the pasta. Taste and season with salt and pepper. When serving the pasta sprinkle it with another 1/4 cup mint.
