Soured Cream Penne

I’ve always loved pasta. It’s just so quick, convenient & filling – an ideal midweek meal in our hectic, modern day lives. This gorgeous recipe is no exception! The tangy, soured cream teamed up with delightfully smokey paprika makes for a beautiful dinner. Made in minutes, you’d be mad not to give this a go!

Here is what you need to serve 2. (Easily doubled.)

(Recipe adapted from The Silver Spoon: Pasta cookbook.)

• 200g Dried Penne Pasta
• 25g Butter
• 150ml Soured Cream
• 1.5 tsp Smoked Paprika
• Pinch of Freshly Grated Nutmeg
• Salt & Pepper
• Freshly Grated Parmesan, to serve

Cook the pasta according to the packet instructions.

Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan.

Stir in the soured cream & cook for 1-2 minutes.

Stir through the paprika & nutmeg. Then season well with salt & pepper.

Drain the cooked pasta and toss through the sauce. Serve sprinkled generously with freshly grated parmesan (and a little fresh parsley if you want to be fancy!)

And that is literally it. Really quick & simple to make, cost effective & bloomin’ delicious! I’m glad I have this in my repertoire. In my opinion, you can never have enough pasta recipes under your belt!

I hope you enjoyed the post my lovelies, until next time!
