Cool evenings call for a curry… Now I am not a pro with curries but this is delicious and I love the Maesri curry pastes. You could easily swap the fish for chicken, slow cooked beef… Ingredients: 500g snapper (or white fish of choice) - cut into large cubes1 tin...
Fettuccine Boscaiola
ᛎ Jump to recipe
Ingredients:
- 500g Fettuccine or pasta of your choice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large brown onion – diced - 3 cloves of garlic – crushed
- 1 cup diced pancetta/bacon
- 1/2 cup finely diced spring onion
- 200 grams white mushrooms – sliced
- 1 tsp ground nutmeg
- 300ml light cream
- 1/2 cup finely chopped flat leaf parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to tasting)
- grated parmesan cheese to serve
Method:
- Place a large pot of water to boil while we prepare the sauce.
- In a deep, thick bottom pan sauté onion with olive oil until translucent on medium low heat. Stir in garlic for a minute, until fragrant.
- Turn heat up to medium and brown off bacon. I don’t stir it too much as this helps crisp it up.
- Season water you have boiled with salt and cook pasta as per packet instructions.
- Back to the sauce, fold in sliced mushrooms and spring onion for a couple of minutes followed by ground nutmeg.
- Turn heat to low and stir in cream, parsley, pepper and taste prior to seasoning with salt as the bacon is salty and it may not need.
- Add 1/2 a ladle of pasta water to sauce and stir through. Drain the remainder of pasta and fold into the sauce ensuring it is all evenly coated.
- Serve with grated parmesan.
Tips/Substitutions:
-
- Replace bacon with pancetta.
- Pairs delcious with a classic rocket, parmesan, walnut & pear salad.
