Method
- Heat the oil and butter together in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Cook the onions and celery for 10 mins, or until beginning to brown.
- Add the garlic granules, a pinch of dried mixed herbs, and season. Increase the heat to high and cook, stirring constantly, until well-browned.
- Add the dried pasta and cook for 1 min to toast. Pour in the vegetable stock and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat and let gently bubble for 12-15 mins until the pasta is tender and liquid has reduced.
- Preheat the grill to the ‘high’ setting. If your pan handle isn’t heat-proof, transfer the pasta to a baking dish.
- Cover the top with the grated cheese and grill for 4-6 mins until dark golden brown and bubbling.
- Meanwhile, cook the peas according to pack instructions.
- Serve the pasta with the cooked peas.
