How To Cook Tagliatelle With Cream, Parmesan And Parsley

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grana padano

Nutritional yeast is lower in calories and adds a cheesy flavor.

Prepare the pasta by bringing a large saucepan of water to a boil and adding some salt.

Add the tagliatelle to the boiling water and cook according to the package instructions.

Tip: If using fresh pasta, make the sauce ahead of time since it only takes a minute or two to cook. Do not overcook the pasta.

While the pasta is cooking, prepare the sauce in a saucepan by melting the butter and adding the chopped shallots.

Pour in the cream and season with salt and black pepper. Let it come to a boil and cook for a few minutes while stirring occasionally.

Remove the sauce from the heat and add half of the grated parmesan cheese, mixing it in and setting it aside.

Once the pasta is cooked, drain it and return it to the saucepan.

Add the prepared sauce to the pasta along with the chopped parsley and mix well.

Spoon the tagliatelle onto a serving plate, drizzle a little truffle oil on top, and garnish with more parmesan cheese.

Serve immediately, optionally with some crusty bread.
