Servings: persons

2 slices pancetta
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon Olive Oil or Coconut butter
1 teaspoon coconut flour
1 cup low sodium chicken or vegetable stock
6 spring onions, trimmed, outer leaves discarded, and finely chopped
14 ounces fresh peas (you can use frozen but fresh works best)
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 lemon, juiced
Olive oil to drizzle

1
Special Equipment: Take out your large saute pan that has a cover! You will need to cover when simmering the peas! If you do not have a cover then use foil.
2
Heat your saute pan and add 1/2 teaspoon of coconut or olive oil. Cut your pancetta into small cubes. Cook until crispy. Put in a bowl to the side.
3
In the same saute pan add the butter and remainder of oil. Then add coconut flour and stir around (I like to use a small whisk). Slowly add the stock.
4
Add the spring onions and peas season with red pepper flakes, salt and pepper.
5
Put the lid on and simmer for 5 minutes or until tender. Taste for any additional seasoning, add lemon juice and just when you are about to serve drizzle with a little olive oil.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
