3

Add crème fraîche and milk and continue to cook until hot.
4

Whisk in parmesan until melted, then add pasta water one scoop at a time until you get your desired thickness of the sauce.
5

Add cooked pasta and peas, mixing well to coat evenly, for about two minutes to allow the peas to cook.

Serve immediately, topped with more thyme and pepper.
