As it is submitted there isn’t a lot of texture going on. The sauce is what makes the dish so good.

Add some mushrooms and diced tomatos and it makes a very tasty and very filling dish.

I just made this and the sauce ( my variation anyway ) is very tasty.

I messed with the recipe some and substituted 1/2 and 1/2 for the cream, added 4 oz. of coarse chopped mushrooms and a can of petite diced tomatos (drained) and only a small can of tomato sauce.

Also substituted 1/2 a pound of coarse chopped bacon for the Pancetta and drained off the grease and just used the olive oil.

This was a hit with everyone at the table.

This looks amazing! I’m adding cream and fresh basil to my grocery list so I can give it a go.

I am SALIVATING over this dish! This would be perfect to make for a nice night-in dinner during the winter. I shall be making this before too long!
