Springtime Pasta Primavera

This vibrant springtime pasta primavera is a celebration of seasonal greenery, bringing together the delicate flavours of tender asparagus, snappy green beans, and sweet garden peas. Coated in a light, silky sauce made with single cream and nutty Parmesan, it offers a sophisticated yet simple way to enjoy a variety of fresh vegetables. The addition of raw plum tomatoes at the end provides a bright, acidic contrast to the rich buttery base, making it an ideal choice for a transition-season dinner.

As a versatile vegetarian main course, this dish is perfect for a quick midweek meal or a relaxed weekend lunch with friends. The recipe relies on high-quality produce, so look for the freshest stalks and pods available at your local market. Serve it simply with a side of crusty bread to soak up the creamy sauce, or add a handful of pea shoots for an extra touch of elegance.
