4: Add the peas...
5: ...and cook until just tender, but be careful, they color quickly.
7: Serve immediately, with a dollop of pesto on top.
Remarks
If you don't have new peas, of course you can shell them. For the pesto, don't hesitate to try something different from the classic, such as sorrel or purple pesto.
