Description
Pumpkin puree makes this fettuccine alfredo silky and slightly sweet, a delicious variation on the original.
Method
Step 1 of 4
Place the pumpkin in a large bowl with a dash of water, cover with clingfilm and microwave on high for 7-8 minutes. Remove the cling film and blend with an immersion blender to puree consistency.
Step 2 of 4
Cook the fettuccine according to pack instructions and drain, reserving a couple of tbs of starchy water.
Step 3 of 4
Melt the butter in a large pan on medium heat, add the garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the pumpkin puree, sage and milk and cook, whisking, for 2 minutes. Add the parmesan and nutmeg and simmer for 5 minutes to reduce slightly.
Step 4 of 4
Add the fettuccine and reserved starchy water (as necessary) to the pan and toss to coat. Serve with parsley, cracked black pepper and extra parmesan on top.
