If you’re looking to indulge in a truly luxurious dish, this Golden Swirl Pasta with Truffle Sauce is a showstopper.
Ingredients
- 250 g spaghetti
- 1 tsp turmeric powder
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tbsp truffle oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
- 1 burrata cheese ball
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the turmeric and then add the pasta in. You can add saffron instead of turmeric to avoid the taste.
- Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain and set the pasta aside.
- In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Be careful not to brown the garlic to avoid bitterness.
- Stir in the heavy cream, truffle oil, salt and pepper.
- Let the sauce simmer gently for 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly.
- Gradually add freshly grated Parmesan cheese to the sauce, stirring constantly until fully melted and smooth.
- If the sauce becomes too thick, add reserved pasta water a little at a time to achieve your desired consistency.
- Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet with the sauce.
- Toss until the pasta is evenly coated with the creamy truffle sauce.
- Top each serving with a generous piece of burrata cheese.
- Serve while warm!
