Recipe - Rose And Poppy Seed Pasta

10 ounce Pasta shells; 275 g
2 tablespoon Sunflower oil
1 Onion; cut or sliced up in thin rings
2 Garlic cloves; crushed
2 teaspoon Poppy seeds
Sea salt & black pepper
1 teaspoon Red rose petals; heaped

Cook the pasta shells in plenty of boiling, salted water until al dente.
Drain, toss in a little sunflower oil and keep warm. Put the remaining oil
in a pan with the onion rings and sweat gently until the onion is soft but
not browned. Lift out the onion with a slotted spoon and mix with the pasta
shells. Put the garlic into the oil in which the onions were cooked and
fry, stirring for 1 minute. Mix the cooked garlic into the pasta. Toss the
pasta in a warmed serving bowl or dish and sprinkle over the poppy seeds
and seasoning to taste. Just before serving, throw in the rose petals.
