Peas and pancetta

Serves 4

Ingredients:

1 tbsp olive oil

1 onion, finely chopped

8oz (225g) pancetta, cut into small cubes

2 garlic cloves, finely chopped

few rosemary sprigs, leaves finely chopped

½ cup dry white wine

2 cups frozen peas

sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Method:

1 Heat the oil in a large frying pan, add the onion, and cook over low heat for 5 minutes or until soft. Increase the heat, add the pancetta, and cook for another 5–8 minutes or until the pancetta is lightly browned. Turn down the heat, add the garlic and rosemary, and stir for a few seconds.
