Romantic Dinner Recipe

This is my best romantic dinner recipe with pasta that I ever made and believe me you don't have to wait Saint Valentine's day or any other special occasion to make it.

A romantic dinner is always special, it's when you are seated relaxing and enjoying an evening meal at home or in a local restaurant.

It's when a look pass between you and the eyes of your beloved through that weak candlelight.

Those whispered words makes you feel excited, and after all it's when that romantic atmosphere makes it all happen.

Ingredients: serves 4

Fettuccine With Rose Petals

- 2 tbsp (gr.28) unsalted butter
- 7 ounces (gr.198) heavy cooking cream
- 1 tbsp (ml.15) extra-virgin olive oil
- 6 ounces (gr.170) dried fettuccine pasta
- 4 ounces (gr.113) ham fully cooked
- 2 pink edible roses
- pinch of salt

Preparation: easy 25 minutes

Tip!
First you have to buy 2 very fresh pink roses at your local supermarket. Had you never thought about that we eat flowers?

They are often used in kitchen as basil, broccoli florets, jasmine, mint, rosemary and violets are just some common kind.

Lets begin that your beloved is waiting!

1. You have to clip and discard bitter white bases from the rose petals; then rinse the petals thoroughly and drain. Remember to keep aside a few for garnish and cut all the remaining petals into small pieces.

2. Bring 2 quarts (lt.2) of water to a boil. Meanwhile, finely dice the ham and place over the stove a frying pan within the butter, olive oil and the diced ham.

Fry lightly to brown and then blend in the heavy cream.

3. At the first boiling of mixture add the pieces of petals and adjust with a pinch of salt. Drain the pasta and transfer it back to the cooking pan and mix well.

4. Garnish with the remaining entire petals that you kept aside and serve immediately. No cheese is required for this romantic dinner recipe.
