I’m like a creature of habit when it comes to pasta, but I thought I’d jump out of my comfort zone and try this stunning dish.
The flavours are amazing and I think it is now one of my favourite dishes. It’s so quick and simple but definitely a meal for those ‘cheating’ days.

- Then turn the heat down to medium then add the cream, little bits at a time and stir.
