Hand making pasta is an art I haven't quite mastered yet, but even so when broad beans are in season any pasta will taste divine with them.

Method

fry up the garlic and coppa for a minute or with nice olive oil, add in the tomatoes and cook for a few more minutes when its all sweating add in the salt and broad beans - cook for a further 3-4 mins and then stir in the cooked pasta and serve with parsly

place home made pasta into boiling salted water and cook till it rises to the top

to make this dish zing even more, double pod your broadbeans and just blanch them for 30 seconds under hot running water or in a saucepan of warm water and then quickly refresh with cold water (keeps the colour in) ... you will be rewarded with extra sweet juicy beans that pep up the dish!
