Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cacio e Pepe with Cannellini Beans and Sweet Peas.
Step 1
Start by grabbing a saucepan and tossing in your sweet peas and cannellini beans.
Step 2
Set the heat to medium-high and let them cook, stirring occasionally, until they’re warmed through and about a third of the liquid has evaporated—this should take around 10 minutes.
Step 3
Once you see that lovely steam rising, it’s time to add a generous pat of butter to the mix.
Step 4
Stir it in until it melts completely, which will take just 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 5
Now, lower the heat to medium and sprinkle in some freshly grated Parmesan cheese along with a dash of black pepper.
Step 6
Keep stirring as the mixture simmers, allowing it to thicken and become wonderfully creamy—this should take another 5 to 10 minutes.
Step 7
Enjoy the delightful aroma filling your kitchen as you create this delicious dish!.
