• Cook the pasta according to the packet instructions and drain loosely retaining some water. Quickly put the pasta into the bowl with the mushroom mixture.
• Toss everything together well, and then add the parsley, cheese and pepper before tossing again. Eat with joy in your heart.

Steps:

• For the pasta and sauce: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pancetta, thyme, garlic and onions and cook until the onions soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the the lemon zest and juice and bring to a simmer. Stir in the peas and cream, bring to a simmer and simmer until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
• For the pangrattato (crispy crumbs): Meanwhile, add the olive oil to a saute pan over medium-low heat. Add the panko, tossing to coat in the oil, and then season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the panko is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the lemon zest and thyme and stir everything together.
• Stir the Pecorino into the lemony sauce, then drain the pasta, add it to the skillet of sauce and toss together. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
• Sprinkle the pangrattato over the pasta and garnish with the lemon wedges. Serve straight from the skillet.

Steps:

• Mix together the oil, garlic, thyme, lemon zest and juice. Season with salt and pepper. Add the toasted pine nuts, stir well, and allow to sit for a couple of hours for the flavors to meld. Cook the pasta in boiling salted water until it is al dente. Just before draining, remove a small cup of pasta water.
• Drain the pasta, and return it to the pot with the lemon sauce over high heat. Add a little pasta water to prevent it from drying out. As soon as it is piping hot, remove from the heat and serve. Scoop the pine nuts off the bottom of the pot to top the pasta, and serve topped with grilled shrimp if using. Offer additional cracked black pepper if desired.

Steps:

• Bring a large pan of lightly salted water to the boil. Feed in the spaghetti and cook for about 10-12 minutes, until just tender. (Check the pack instructions for timings - 'quick cook' spaghetti takes only 3 minutes.) Add the peas for the last 2-3 minutes.
• At the same time, heat the olive oil in a saucepan and fry the onion gently until softened and cooked, but not brown. Stir in the soft cheese and warm it through, adding 3 tbsp of the pasta cooking water to thin it down. Now stir in the lemon zest and 2 tbsp of the Parmesan.
• Drain the spaghetti and peas really well, return them to the pan and gently stir in the sauce. Season with salt and pepper, then pile it into 2 serving bowls. Sprinkle the parsley and the remaining Parmesan over the top and serve right away, with a mixed leaf salad.
