A simple, comforting summer pasta that comes together in just a few minutes, celebrating the sweetness of peas with the rich saltiness of pancetta. Here is my delicious Pea, Pancetta & Onion Tagliatelle.

Method
Bring a large pan of generously salted water to the boil and cook the tagliatelle until al dente.
Meanwhile, warm a large frying pan over a medium heat with oil, then cook the diced pancetta until lightly golden and beginning to crisp. Add the finely chopped onion and cook gently until softened.
Stir in the peas (fresh or frozen) and add a couple of ladles of water. Allow everything to simmer gently for a few minutes until the peas are tender and the liquid has reduced slightly.
Transfer the cooked pasta directly into the pan with the peas and pancetta, adding a little of the pasta cooking water.
Add a k**b of butter, then toss everything together until the butter has melted, creating a silky sauce that coats the pasta.
Serve up and finish with freshly chopped parsley and a sprinkling of Parmesan.

Enjoy! 🍝

It was a pleasure to welcome my good friend and exceptional seafood chef, , to Theo Randall Cucina Italiana for a one-night-only collaboration last Wednesday.

Together, we created a four-course menu that celebrated our individual cooking styles and some of the very best seasonal ingredients. It was fantastic to see so many guests join us for an evening of great food and wonderful company around the table.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along and made it such a special night.

Keep your eyes peeled... a very exciting announcement is coming soon about who's joining me next in the Chef Series, as we celebrate 20 years of Cucina Italiana.

A super simple and delicious starter to enjoy over the weekend or at your next dinner party. These are my Potato & Onion Fritters with Salsa Verde, from my Verdura book.

Crispy, vinegary and delicious, make sure to let me know if you give these a go!

Method:
Finely grate the red onion and potato into a large bowl.
Squeeze the grated vegetables well to remove as much excess moisture as possible.
Add an egg yolk, plain flour and plenty of grated Parmesan.
Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Mix everything together until you have a cohesive mixture that holds its shape.
Heat a generous layer of vegetable oil in a frying pan over a medium heat.
Shape the mixture into small fritters and gently lower them into the hot oil, flattening slightly with the back of a spoon.
Fry for 3–4 minutes on each side until beautifully golden brown and crisp.
Make a simple salsa verde with mint, basil, parsley and capers by finely chopping up everything, then adding in a dash of vinegar and olive oil.
Enjoy your fritters with your salsa verde!

Bringing some of the freshest summer ingredients to the forefront, this is Italian cooking at its simplest and most delicious.

Method:
Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and cook your pasta until al dente, reserving a cup of pasta water before draining.
Finely slice the garlic and gently cook in a generous drizzle of olive oil until fragrant, taking care not to let it colour.
Thinly slice the courgette and add to the pan, cooking until just tender while still retaining a little bite.
Roughly chop the cherry tomatoes small, keeping the skins on for extra flavour, and add them to the pan. Cook gently until they begin to soften and release their juices.
Add a splash of the reserved pasta water to create a light, silky sauce.
Toss the cooked pasta through the vegetables, adding a few capers, fresh torn basil and a parmesan.
