Ingredients

3 tbsp olive oil

1 onion, finely chopped

1 garlic clove, finely chopped

4 tbsp chopped flat-leaf parsley

300g frozen broad beans

350g Asda Linguine (or Spaghetti)

200g frozen petit pois

200g Wensleydale, crumbled

Method

1
Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a pan. Add the onion and cook until soft and translucent, then add the garlic and half the parsley and cook for another minute.
2
Stir in the broad beans and 200ml water, cover and cook for 5 minutes. Remove half of the beans with a draining spoon and set aside. Mash the remainder with a potato masher or a hand-held blender.
3
While the beans are cooking, add the pasta to a large pan of boiling salted water and boil for 11 minutes, adding the peas for the last 3 minutes. Add the reserved broad beans and heat for a few seconds, then drain.
4
Combine the broad bean purée, the remaining olive oil and parsley and half the crumbled cheese, and toss in with the pasta. Sprinle with the remaining cheese to serve.
