Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Spaghetti or Fettuccine
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 200 ml Heavy cream
- 50 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
- 20 grams Black truffle, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Chopped parsley
Instructions
Fill a large pot with water and add a generous amount of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat.
While the water is heating, peel and finely chop the garlic cloves.
Once boiling, add the pasta to the pot and cook according to the package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes.
In a large non-stick skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped garlic and sauté until fragrant but not browned, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the heavy cream to the skillet and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring constantly.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until it has completely melted and the sauce is smooth.
Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste.
Once the pasta is cooked, reserve half a cup of pasta water and then drain the pasta.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the sauce, tossing to coat evenly. If the sauce is too thick, add a little pasta water to reach the desired consistency.
Garnish with sliced black truffles and mix gently.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley.
