Fresh Fettuccine With Butter Peas And Sage Sauce Recipes

FETTUCCINE WITH CREAMY SAGE SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add about 1 Tbs. salt.
• In a large skillet, combine the butter and sage. Stir over low heat until the butter has melted.
• Add the cream and stock and bring to a boil; cook until the mixture lightly coats the back of a spoon, about 3 minute
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Remove the sauce from the heat but keep it warm.
• Meanwhile, cook the fettuccine until al dente, 10 to 12 minute
• With tongs, lift the pasta from the pot, let it drain for a moment over the boiling water, and then add it to the sauce in the skillet. (Alternatively, drain the pasta in a colander and add it to the sauce.)
• Cook gently on low for a few minutes for the pasta to absorb the sauce.
• Remove the pasta from the heat and stir in the grated cheese, and season amply with pepper.
• Serve in warmed bowls topped with the shaved ricotta.

FRESH FETTUCCINE WITH BUTTER, PEAS AND SAGE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Over medium heat, melt 1/4 cup of the butter in a small saucepan. Add the sage leaves and cook until they are crisp. When the butter begins to brown, add the peas and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add 1/4 cup water, cover the saucepan and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine until al dente, 2 to 3 minutes, drain well and toss with the remaining butter, 3/4 cup of the grated Parmesan and the pea-and-sage mixture. Transfer to an ovenproof dish and place in the oven for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan.
