Pumpkin Pasta with Butter Sage Parmesan Sauce

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Pumpkin Purée. If using canned pumpkin purée, measure out 1 cup. If using fresh pumpkin, roast or boil, then purée until smooth.

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin purée and flour. Mix until a dough forms.

3. 3

   Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

4. 4

   Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add salt. Cut the dough roughly with a scissor into the boiling water. Cook the fresh pasta for about 3 minutes or until al dente. Fresh pasta cooks faster than dried pasta.

5. 5

   Once it's ready, added to your favourite sauce and enjoy.

6. 6

   In a pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add fresh sage leaves and sauté until the butter turns golden

7. 7

   Once the pasta is cooked, drain it and add it directly to the pan with the sage butter. Toss the pasta to coat it in the flavorful butter

8. 8

   Sprinkle grated Parmesan over the pasta and continue tossing until the cheese melts and coats the pasta evenly. Add some pasta water to help combine all the ingredients together.

9. 9

   Garnish with additional Parmesan and sage leaves for a finishing touch.
