Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay has angered Italians by putting peas in a plate of spaghetti carbonara.
The TV chef, 57, added the quintessential British vegetable to his version of the Italian classic, spaghetti carbonara.
However, the popular pasta dish is traditionally made with guanciale or bacon, pecorino cheese, and egg.
The added ingredient of peas left Italians and carbonara fans furious, with some begging Gordon to never cook pasta again.
The £15 dish is served at its Gordon Ramsay Street Pizza restaurants across the UK.

The Italian Juline Marconi was furious: “For God’s sake.” Guanciale, egg and pecorino cheese, it’s not that difficult.
His compatriot Sandro Luc added: “I love Gordon, but this is not carbonara.” Amedeo Emmolo said: “Please delete this and never cook pasta again.”
Britain’s Chris Bane said: “That’s not carbonara on any level.” Connor Musson said: ‘What is this abomination of Italian food? What a shame, Gordon.
Another person joked: “I’m not even Italian and I’m offended.” While someone else added: ‘Do people have to pay for that?’
Another said: ‘RIP carbonara.’ Meanwhile someone else joked: “Gordon isn’t afraid of Italians.”
It is not the first time that the famous chef has received criticism for some of his culinary creations.
In June, the Hell’s Kitchen star came under fire for her new breakfast burger with a runny fried egg.
A month earlier, Ramsay was branded a cheapskate for serving just six fries with a steak at his Heddon Street Kitchen.

The added ingredient of peas left Italians and carbonara fans furious, with some begging Gordon to never cook pasta again.
The 57-year-old’s Instagram account boasted of the grilled steak served with fries and a fancy corn chimichurri sauce.
It costs £19.50 at his Heddon Street Kitchen restaurant in upscale Mayfair, west London, but foodies were quick to say the same about the lack of chips.
The meat is sliced and the sauce is drizzled over the top with a side of salad, but only six fries are left stacked in a tower on the plate.
One social media commenter fumed: ‘Six chips, get out of there.’ Who are you kidding? Give me a plate of them.
Another joked: ‘How fair are the chips? I had fish and chips there and thought the fish had eaten them.
A fellow fan wrote: “Looks good, although I would like more than six chips please.”
Brandon Larnell said, “Please don’t make my fries look pretty and put more on the plate.”

Diners have branded a Gordon Ramsay burger a ‘bloody disaster’ because it has cheese sprinkled on top of the bun, making it difficult to eat.
Another, named Patrick, exclaimed: ‘Six fries?’ Jean said, ‘Great, where’s the rest of the fries?’ Christie added: ‘Six chips? I would change the situation.
The steak and chips comes with a starter or dessert as part of the price.
The summer menu costs £19.50 for two courses or £24.50 for three.
But it is only available during lunch and afternoon on weekdays and is not available for groups larger than 12 people.
It comes after diners branded a Gordon Ramsay burger a ‘bloody disaster’ because it has cheese sprinkled on top of the bun, making it difficult to eat.
The dish, which according to the online menu costs £18 and comes with fries, is filled with a double beef patty, American cheese, onion and Sriracha mayonnaise.
The TV chef is selling the Next Level Burger in nine Street Burger restaurants across the UK, but food lovers on social media have criticized the food online.
He promoted the dish in a social media post, sharing an Instagram reel with his 17.3 million followers.
In the clip, the burger is also topped with a scoop of macaroni and cheese.
‘Treat yourself to a tasty stack of Next Level this weekend at @gordonramsaystreetburger!!’ wrote the cook.
However, commentators didn’t seem very impressed with the offer.
“Looks like a real mess,” one wrote, slamming the sauce and toppings spilling from the bun.
“It looked great until you put that white stuff on top,” another added.
Another wrote: “Making a burger that is not easy to understand demonstrates a fundamental lack of understanding of what a burger is.”
Elsewhere, one person simply told the chef to “start over.”
‘It looks delicious, but how are you supposed to eat that?’ asked one commenter. “Too dirty to pick up and eat,” another commented.
Others also took issue with the price, adding that it was expensive for Britons going through a cost of living crisis.
“I’m sure it tastes good, but I don’t think the wallet will agree.”
However, some fans were more convinced and found the food to look “smashing” and “amazing.”
