Recipe is very good as written, it has a very fresh taste. My Sicilian mother makes a version of this dish with the exception that she fries her onions in olive oil, spring onions mixed with regular chopped onion till golden brown and then adds peas, parsely and a bit of water, salt and pepper and boils till tender and mixes any type of cooked and drained pastas and tops with parmigiano cheese. Her version is savory and not as mild as this version

I live in country Western Australia, 158 kms from the City of Perth. It is an agricultural area with Mediterranean type climatic conditions. Our family has always grown fresh produce so it is easy to use fruit and vegetables that are in season. My favourite cookbooks are anything written by Antonio Carluccio, Margaret Fulton, Stephanie Alexander,Jamie Oliver and just about any other?cookbook that is full of interesting and tempting recipes. I like to experiment with food and bring out the best of flavours in any dish that I prepare. Do I love homemade Italian food? How can you live without it? But then I love Indian,Asian, Middle Eastern,European cuisines and the good old Aussie food as well. Nothing beats a good barbecue with the family and friends.
