Fettuccine con Pancetta e Finocchio
Fettuccine con Pancetta e Finocchio
(Fettuccine with Pancetta and Fennel)
 
Ingredients:

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
5 ounces thinly sliced pancetta, cut into toothpick-sized strips
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 large fennel bulbs, fronds chopped, bulbs cut into 1/4-inch-thick wedges
2 teaspoons fennel seeds
1/8 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
1 cup whipping cream
1 pound fettuccine
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese 

Directions:

Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium-low heat.

Add pancetta and garlic; saute until garlic is pale golden, about 4 minutes.

Stir in 1/3 cup chopped fennel fronds, fennel wedges, fennel seeds and crushed red pepper.

Cover and cook until fennel wedges are soft, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes.

Add cream; cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook fettuccine in large pot of boiling salted water until 'al dente', stirring occasionally.

Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta cooking water.

Toss pasta with fennel mixture and enough reserved cooking water to coat.

Season with salt and pepper. Serve, passing Parmesan cheese separately. Makes 4 to 6 servings.

That's it!
