Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the package instructions. Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan and fry the minced meat into small balls (cut into pieces if you’re in a hurry). Finely dice the onion and add it to the meat. Grate 3/4 of the lemon zest and add it. When the meat is slightly browned, add the peas and pour in the cream. Let it reduce slightly. Add 2/3 of the grated Parmesan cheese and stir to combine. The pasta should now be ready. Mix with the sauce in a large bowl. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese before serving. Grate the remaining lemon zest and sprinkle everything with the chopped basil.
