1

Start to prepare pasta by cooking in boiling salted water.

2

Finely chop the shallot and grate Parmesan. Set aside.

3

Heat up olive oil on medium and cook chopped shallots for 1-2 minutes until tender. Add in minced garlic and mix again until fragrant.

4

Lower heat. Add in butter and mix until melted. Pour in cream and mix.

5

Add pumpkin puree and mix again until everything is one a consistent smooth texture.

6

Add in Parmesan and mix again.

Season to taste. I used salt, pepper and a dusting of sage. Mix and let simmer for a few. Sauce should thicken slightly.

When pasta is ready, strain and add to the sauce. Add a few splashes of pasta water (don’t skip this).

Mix well and serve with more Parmesan and parsley flakes. ENJOY!
