Cook the pasta according to the pack instructions until cooked but still a little firm to the bite (al dente).
3
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large pan and sauté the mushrooms for a few minutes, until softened. Add the peas, the lemon zest and juice, then season to taste. Remove the pan from the heat, stir in the vegan creme fraiche, about three quarters of the vegan parmesan and most of the herbs (reserving some to top each pasta serving).

Drain the pasta, reserving a little water. Toss it all into the sauce. Serve with the remaining vegan parmesan, herbs and pistachio.
