How to Make Avocado Fettuccine

  1. Cook fettuccine according to package directions. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
  2. While pasta cooks, mash avocado in a large bowl. Stir in Parmesan cheese, heavy cream, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper.
  3. Add the drained pasta to the avocado mixture. Toss to coat evenly.
  4. If needed, add a little pasta water at a time to reach your desired consistency.
  5. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh basil (optional).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
