Wow. Although a little richer than most of the things I cook, this is a delicious treat. I made it pretty much as written, (including roasted green onions- what a nice flavour they add!) However, I used only a single cup of cream, added loads of fresh dill as well as the zest of one lemon in the cream sauce. I'll be making this again. I served with steamed asparagus and roasted Brussels sprouts.

    We made this with gnocchi rather than pasta. It is my husband's favorite dish at restraunts. I used only 1 cup of cream and 2 T of chopped onion since I didn't have geen onion. It was a big hit. He moaned, "So good, and I'm so full, but I can't stop eating."

    This is a very easy and quick dish to fix. After adding the cream and bringing to a simmer, I reduced the sauce by about 25% so it coats the pasta better. I already had this recipe and was going to post it as I plan on fixing it again tomorrow night, now I don't have to. I also add a dash of Tabasco sauce as I do with just about all cream sauces I make. This is very good and makes a good weeknight dinner that seems special, but requires very little work. Add a salad and rolls and you have a wonderful meal.

    This is a great recipe. I didn't roast the onions, but just added them at the end. I also reduced the cream sauce before serving.
