ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic (2 cloves)
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 3 lemons
  • kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 lb dried fusilli

Advertisem*nt

directions

  • Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  • Add the garlic, and cook for 60 seconds, then add the cream, the zest and juice of 2 of the lemons, 2 teaspoons of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper.
  • Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, until it starts to thicken.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add 1 tablespoon of salt and the pasta, and cook al dente according to the directions on the package, about 12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Drain the pasta and return it to the pot.
  • Immediately add the cream mixture and cook over medium-low heat for 3 minutes, until the pasta has absorbed most of the sauce.
  • Pour the hot pasta into a large bowl and add the arugula, Parmesan and tomatoes.
  • Cut the last lemon in half lengthwise, slice it 1/4-inch thick crosswise, and add a few slices to the pasta. Toss well, season to taste, and serve hot.

  1. Favorite recipe of the bride. She feels we can each make a batch for 20 at home, in a foil casserole and warm them in the commercial gas range. Foil covered. Then into commercial warming oven, then serve in chafing dishes. But I read online people having difficulty reheating as it seperates. Uh.....200 + guests? Maybe if noodles and sauce arrive cooked seperatly and we rewarm noodles in hot water and combine all the sauces and reheat seperatly, then combine all w the fresh ingredients?

  1. Made this tonight because of an abundance of arugula (on clearance at the grocery store as it was about out of date) SOOO YUMMY!!! I did add 2 avacado's and about 1lb of grilled chicken to it to make it a little more of a 'full' meal for our family. This makes a very large meal! The sauce is so flavorful while at the same time not being too rich or thick. I used a little less than what it called for of cream since I didn't have quite what I needed but it was wonderful. Will definately add this to the make again and potluck cookbooks!

  2. Delicious. Easy. Family favorite - just toss in whatever veggies need to be eaten. I was surprised the cream didn't curdle - we practically licked our bowls clean.

  3. Oh dear - this sounded so good and I followed the directions and my cream curdled into something that looked like cottage cheese. We ended up going out to eat! I may try this again and add the lemon juice much later.

  4. Saw Ina making this on her tv show! Great meatless dinner!

  5. I wanted to like this, I really did. It was just way too acidic. 3 lemons was just way too much. I couldn't even finish my serving.

  1. This was amazing and easy! I used fresh roma tomatoes instead of cherry tomatoes, and it was delicious. I will definitely make this again

  2. This was delicious, thanks for posting cookiedog. I substituted organic diced tomatoes for the cherry tomatoes, that was my only change. I will make this again. It was so easy and I love arugula.
