Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add your spaghetti or linguine and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve about 1 cup of the pasta water before draining the pasta.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Once shimmering, add 2 cloves of minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add 1 cup of fresh peas and cook until vibrant green and tender, about 4-5 minutes.
- Introduce the drained pasta to the skillet, mixing it with the garlic and peas. Break apart the burrata cheese and add it, allowing it to melt slightly. Gently fold in a handful of torn fresh mint leaves.
- Check the pasta's consistency and gradually stir in reserved pasta water until the sauce reaches the desired creaminess.
- Plate your Spring Pea Pasta, drizzling a little extra virgin olive oil on top. Garnish with additional mint leaves, red pepper flakes, or toasted nuts if desired.

Notes
For maximum creaminess, break the burrata just before serving. Reserve pasta water for perfect sauce consistency.
