Notes
- Make sure to reserve some pasta water to mix into the creamy sauce. The starchy water makes it super creamy, glossy and smooth.
- For some added spice you can add some red chilli flakes.
- Slices of fresh cherry tomatoes or even sun-dried tomatoes on top add a nice freshness.
- For a green veggie boost, you can add some spinach at the same time as the creme fraiche.
