Yes, I've been in the mood for pasta. Mmm.

Fettuccine Margherita

1 lb fettuccine
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
28 oz can plum tomatoes chopped (I used one 28oz can crushed tomatoes)
1/4 cup white wine
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese

cook fettuccine until al dente
heat olive oil in pan ... add garlic and red pepper flakes ... cook 2 mins
add tomatoes and wine and boil 2 mins
add cream and salt and boil 1 min
drain fettuccine and pour sauce over it ... sprinkle on the parmesan cheese
toss quickly and serve

Mmm mmm good.
