PASTA PARTY
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. When the water is boiling, cook the pasta until al dente, 10-12 minutes. Drain, reserving a cup of pasta water, and toss through some oil to prevent sticking.
TOASTY TIME
Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
PREP STEP
Rinse the salad leaves. Peel and grate the garlic clove. Peel and roughly dice ½ the onion.
CRISPY KASSLER
Pat the kassler cubes dry with paper towel. Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the kassler cubes until crispy, 3-4 minutes (shifting as it browns). Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel.
SIMMERING AWAY...
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil or a knob of butter. When hot, fry the diced onion until soft, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the grated garlic and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Add the white wine and simmer until reduced by half, 1-2 minutes. Stir in the cream and ¾ of the grated cheese. Reduce the heat and simmer until slightly reduced, 2-3 minutes (stirring occasionally). Add the cooked pasta, the peas, the crispy kassler, and seasoning. Toss until fully combined. If the sauce is too thick, gradually add the reserved pasta water until a silky consistency. Remove from the heat.
TOSS TOGETHER
In a salad bowl, toss together the rinsed salad leaves, ¾ of the toasted sunflower seeds, a drizzle of olive oil and seasoning.

Dish up the creamy kassler pasta and sprinkle over the remaining grated cheese and sunflower seeds. Serve with the crunchy green salad on the side and finish with a drizzle of lemon juice. You’ve earned it, Chef!
