Indulge in Autumn Bliss with Creamy Pumpkin Fettuccine

Autumn Comfort Food: Creamy Pumpkin Fettuccine

Today, I’m excited to share a cozy and delicious recipe perfect for the crisp autumn evenings that are upon us. This creamy pumpkin fettuccine is a comforting dish that combines the flavors of fall with a creamy, indulgent sauce that will warm you up from the inside out.

For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

• 250g fettuccine
• 200g pumpkin puree
• 150ml heavy cream
• 50g butter
• 50g parmesan cheese, grated
• 10 fresh sage leaves
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• Salt and pepper, to taste

To prepare this dish, you will need the following kitchen tools:

• saucepan
• wooden spoon
• grater
• pot

Start by cooking the fettuccine according to the package instructions in a large pot of salted water. While the pasta is cooking, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the sage leaves and cook until the butter is fragrant and the sage leaves are crispy. Remove the sage leaves and set them aside for garnish.

To the saucepan, add the pumpkin puree, heavy cream, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine and let the sauce simmer for a few minutes to thicken. Once the sauce has thickened slightly, stir in the grated parmesan cheese until melted and creamy.

Once the fettuccine is cooked to al dente, drain it and add it to the sauce. Toss the pasta in the sauce until it is well coated. Serve the creamy pumpkin fettuccine hot, garnished with the crispy sage leaves and an extra sprinkle of parmesan cheese.

One unique tip for this recipe is to toast the sage leaves in the butter before adding the other ingredients. This simple step adds a depth of flavor to the dish that you won’t want to miss.
