Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz Gluten-free pasta (such as penne or fettuccine)
- 1 oz Fresh truffle
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- to taste Salt
- to taste Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gluten-free pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water, and set aside.
While the pasta is cooking, finely grate or thinly shave the truffle using a truffle slicer or microplane. Set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.
Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir occasionally and let the cream reduce slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing to coat with the cream sauce. Add the reserved pasta water a little at a time if the sauce is too thick.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, mixing until it melts and combines with the sauce. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Remove the skillet from the heat and gently fold in most of the shaved truffle, saving a few slices for garnish.
Serve the pasta in warm plates or bowls, garnished with the extra truffle slices and freshly chopped parsley.
