Steps:

• 1. Bring a large pot of water, 4 to 5 quarts, to a rapid boil. Add a Tbsp. of sea salt. Toss in the Paccheri or large rigatoni pasta and cook according to instructions. Al Dente is preferred so remove before pasta is fully cooked.

In the same pan, saute onions until softened, about 5 minutes. Add peas and garlic and saute for 3 minutes. Stir in Parmesan, pasta and pancetta. Moisten pasta with some of the reserved pasta water. Toss to incorporate, season with salt and pepper, if necessary, and serve, sprinkled with lemon juice.

Add the bacon, cook for a further 5 mins, then pour in the hot stock and bring to the boil. Simmer for a few mins until the liquid has reduced slightly.

• Add the heavy cream and the sherry. Bring to a boil and then remove from heat.
• Add the gorgonzola and stir until smooth. Place the pan back on the heat just until the cheese is fully melted and stir in the nutmeg.
• Drain the pasta and put back into the pasta pot or a pasta bowl. Pour sauce over pasta and mix. Serve in shallow bowls and pass parmesan cheese for diners to grate over the hot pasta.
