Ingredients
1
portion dried Pasta
spaghetti recommended;
¼
cup
finely chopped Onion;
¼
cup
White Wine;
5
Tbsp.
Butter;
1
small Truffle
finely chopped;
1
Egg;
¼
cup
heavy Cream;
1

2
Tbsp.

Instructions
Beat the Egg in a bowl and add the Cream, Cheese, Garlic, Salt and Pepper. Stir in the Parsley and Truffle but save just a little of each for garnish.
Cook the pasta in boiling salted water and, in the meantime, heat a little oil in a pan and saute the onion.
When the onion is soft, add the wine and 4 tablespoons of the butter to the pan and turn up the heat until the wine is bubbling.
Add the drained pasta and cook over moderately high heat wine has almost completely bubbled away.
Remove the pan from the heat and pour in the reserved egg mixture, stirring quickly so that all the pasta is coated before the egg begins to set.
Plate and garnish with the reserved butter, truffle and parsley.
