Ingredients:
- 1 pound of pasta (preferably fettuccine or tagliatelle)
- 2-3 tablespoons of truffle oil
- 1 cup of heavy cream
- 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions:
1. Boil the pasta:
Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil. Add a generous amount of salt to the boiling water. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until it is al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving a cup of the pasta water for later use.
2. Prepare the sauce:
In a large skillet, heat the truffle oil over medium heat. Add the heavy cream and bring it to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for a few minutes until it thickens slightly.
3. Add the pasta:
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the truffle cream sauce. Toss the pasta gently to coat it evenly with the sauce. If the sauce seems too thick, add a small amount of the reserved pasta water to thin it out.
4. Season and serve:
Season the truffle pasta with salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the pasta and toss it well. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
5. Enjoy!
Serve the truffle pasta immediately while it’s still hot. This dish pairs perfectly with a glass of crisp white wine. Bon appétit!
