- Bring a large pan of water to the boil, then cook the pasta according to the pack instructions until al dente. Drain, reserving 100ml of the pasta water.
- While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil in a frying pan. Finely chop the onion, then fry for 3-4 minutes. Chop the chestnuts and strip the leaves from the thyme.
- Add the pancetta/bacon to the pan and fry for 5 minutes, then crush in the garlic and add the chestnuts, petits pois and half the thyme. Fry for a further 3-4 minutes.
