Preparation
Boil the pasta & vegetables
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Remove the stem ends of the string beans and string peas; cut into thirds. Add the pasta to the pot of boiling water; stir gently to separate. Boil, stirring occasionally, 4 to 6 min., until al dente. In the final 2 to 3 min., add the string beans and string peas. Reserving 1 cup cooking water (double for 4 portions), drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
Make the sauce
Meanwhile, in a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the garlic and sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant. Add the roasted red pepper spread, demi-glace and ½ the reserved cooking water. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 min., until combined; season with the spices and S&P.
Combine the pasta
To the pan of sauce, add the pasta and vegetables. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 min., until heated through and combined. If the sauce seems dry, gradually add the remaining cooking water until you achieve your desired consistency. Off the heat, add 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions) and S&P; stir well.
Plate your dish
Divide the pasta between your bowls. Garnish with the cheese. Bon appétit!
