Preparation steps
1.
Wash the tomatoes. Cut in half or leave whole, depending on the size. Peel the onions and cut into rings. Peel and finely chop the garlic.

Cook the spaghetti in boiling, salted water until al dente. In the meantime, sauté the garlic in the butter, then add the chopped pistacchio nuts and sauté. Now add the peas, then pour in the vegetable broth, cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the crème fraîche, season to taste with lime juice and mint, then puree. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm. Sauté the onions in a skillet in hot oil. Add the tomatoes and fry, then season with salt and pepper and caramelize with the sugar. Drizzle some aceto balsamico over the top and season to taste. Drain the spaghetti and toss with the tomatoes. Arrange on warmed plates. Spoon some pea pesto over the top, garnish with some basil strips and serve.
