Time: 15 mins
Serves: 2
250g good quality tagliatelle
50g butter
250ml double cream
100g parmesan, finely grated
2 lemons, zested & juice of 1/2
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1. Place a large saucepan of salted water over a high heat, bring to the boil. Add the pasta and cook according to packet instructions.
2. While the pasta is cooking add the lemon zest to a separate pan along with the cream. Simmer for a 3-4 minutes until slightly reduced, stirring often. Add the butter, stir to combine. The butter should instantly melt into the liquid.
3. Scoop the pasta into the sauce along with a little cooking liquid, toss to coat the pasta in the sauce, simmer for a minute or two until the pasta has absorbed most of the liquid. Remove from the heat and stir through two thirds of the cheese, little by little, keeping a little back to serve. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve straight away in bowls with a squeeze of lemon juice, the remaining cheese and a crack of black pepper over the top.

I dont think cream is used… Just cheese and pasta water
Don't use cream… you're ruining what should be a Sicilian dish

Looks delicious
The worst sin is not even the cream, which says a lot. Why on Earth add the lemon juice AFTER you make the emulsion???? It's not just misunderstanding the dish, it's like spraying detergent on your clothes after you take them out of the dryer.
Noooo cheese !!!!
Why would you put cream in there???
The cream is not required
No cream wtf
No cream!
Cream is for noobs lol
Love the idea of grating the parm cheese this way!! Great work β€
Looks ridiculously good!!!
You only need that much fat if you don't know how to properly cook a pasta dish. Lemon juice, parmigiano, butter and the pasta water are more than enough for this sauce to amazing and refreshing
if folks like cream, go for it — you don't need it for this dish if you don't have it. pasta water/lemon juice, butter, and parm will you give a really nice emulsion all on their own. but like i said if you like cream right on.
Using cream is a good indicator that you donβt know how to make Italian dishes
Why cream tho
Skipp the cream, add an egg yolk π
