Pasta and Peas in Red Sauce is a comforting and simple dish that ranks high in the realm of Italian cuisine. With origins in the rustic kitchens of southern Italy, it’s a perfect example of how humble ingredients can create something truly delicious. This dish pairs tender ditalini pasta with sweet peas, all enveloped in a rich and tangy tomato sauce. It’s a go-to for busy weeknights and is also special enough to serve for a casual dinner with friends.
This delicious bowl of Pasta and Peas in Red Sauce pairs wonderfully with a crisp green salad, perhaps a classic Caesar or a tangy arugula salad with lemon vinaigrette. For a heartier meal, you can serve it alongside a warm, crusty garlic bread. A glass of medium-bodied red wine, such as a Chianti, would complement the flavors beautifully, and a light dessert like panna cotta or fresh fruit can round off your meal perfectly.
