Let's cook
Cook the spaghetti in well-salted boiling water. Add the peas for the last 2 minutes. Save 1 cup pasta water, then drain.
In the empty pot, stir the ricotta, Parmesan, the zest of the lemon, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tbsp oil and 1/2 cup pasta water into a loose sauce.
Add the pasta and peas and toss, adding more pasta water until creamy.
Season with salt and plenty of pepper.
