FETTUCCINE IN CREAMY MUSHROOM AND BASIL SAUCE

I love pasta!!! And there are so many good places in Pune that serve good Italian food. This was my first attempt at cooking Italian so the ingredients maybe unorthodox and the method too. But the result was fabulous and my friends loved it.

Ingredients:-

·        Store-bought fettuccine

·        Fresh cream

·        Mozzarella cheese

·        Sour cream

·        Milk

·        Garlic

·        Butter

·        Basil leaves

·        Button mushrooms

·        Parsley

·        Salt

·        pepper

                                     Preparation:-

·        Melt some butter in a pan.

·        Add chopped garlic and sauté for a minute.

·        Add chopped mushrooms and sauté till they’re cooked completely.

·        Add one tablespoon of sour cream and equal amount of mozzarella cheese.

·        Add about 2-3 crushed basil leaves, finely chopped parsley and stir.

·        Add about half a cup of slightly warm milk. (the amount of milk may differ according to your preference of sauce)

·        Add salt and pepper.

·        Cook the fettuccine in salted boiling water. It should be cooked but firm to bite.

·        Add the cooked fettuccine to the pan and coat it with the sauce.

·        Garnish with basil leaves or parsley and serve hot with a slice of bread.
