Preparation
Boil the pasta & make the sauce
In a medium pot, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the kale and garlic. Sauté, 1 to 2 min., until fragrant and wilted. Add the pasta, demi-glace, cream, 2 ½ cups water (double for 4 portions) and a pinch of salt; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to simmer and cook, stirring frequently, 4 to 6 min., until the pasta is al dente and most of the liquid has evaporated; season with the spices.
Finish & serve
Juice the lemon. To the pot of pasta, add the peas. Cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 min., until the peas turn bright green. Add the lemon juice (add ½ for a milder flavour), 3 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions) and S&P; stir well. Divide the pasta between your plates. Bon appétit!
