1
Set a large pot of salted water to boil for the fusilli pasta.
2
Once the water is boiling, add the Fusilli pasta and cook according to the package instructions. Keep 2 cups of pasta water aside before draining.
3
While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet.
4
Sauté the finely chopped yellow onion in the olive oil until it turns translucent, usually around 5 minutes.
5
Stir in the fresh green peas, sea salt, and ground black pepper into the skillet, then add a cup of the reserved pasta water.
6
Cover the skillet and leave to simmer for 10 minutes, or until the peas are tender.
7
Add the cooked Fusilli pasta to the skillet, stirring everything together. If desired, add additional pasta water for a looser consistency.
8
Finally, sprinkle with finely chopped fresh parsley and give it a good mix just before it's time to serve.
