Angela had this in a Roman trattoria called Trattoria da Lucia, it was wonderful, so I tried to copy it.
First of all, this goes quickly, so you should really get everything ready before you start.
Method
- get water with lots of salt boiling
- in a large frying pan or sauce pan brown veal over high heat, drain off fat and remove to bowl
- put a little olive oil in the plan and brown the mushrooms
- as they are nearly finished, add the shallots and red peppers and lower the temperature to medium
- add the veal back and the tomato paste with 1/2 cup of some salt water from the pasta
- cook the pasta
- add water to the veal as you think necessary to keep a little steam going
- as the pasta is nearly done, add the peas to the veal and stir, then add the cream to the veal and stir
- drain the pasta and add to the ragu and stir with 1/2 cup of cheese
- pour into serving bowl and garnish with remaining cheese
