Add salt to taste and a few drops of oil to prevent sticking. In 5 to 6 minutes, the noodles will be soft yet firm, drain them into a colander and run cold water over it. Drain and set aside.
Place a saucepan on medium-high heat. When the pan is nice and hot, add olive oil. When it begins to smoke, add peas, peppers and onions; saute for a minute. Pour in the sauces, salt and pepper.
Give it a quick whisk; Toss in the noodles, and some more olive oil.
Mix well with tongs. Serve warm along with a good red wine. Enjoy!
