Fettuccine With Cream, Basil And Romano

Ingredients

4 slices bacon
4 green onions
120 ml whipping cream
40 gr parmesan
1 1/2 romano
12 gr basil
100 gr fettuccine
1 salt
1 parmesan

Instructions

Cook bacon in heavy medium skillet over medium heat until beginning to brown. Add green onions and stir until softened, about 1 minute. Add cream and simmer until beginning to thicken, about 1 minute. Mix in half cup Romano cheese and chopped fresh basil. Meanwhile, cook fettuccine in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain well. Return to hot pot. Add sauce and stir to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately, passing additional cheese separately. *** My notes: When I made this, I used 1 cup whipping cream, half cup each Parmesan and Romano, 1 tablespoon dried basil, and substituted 4 or 5 thin slices of Prosciutto for the baconfrying slightly in butter. I used about 6 ounces of "Pesto Linguini", which is a thinner pasta containing basil. We like LOTS of sauce!
