🧂 Ingredients

1 Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water according to package
instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain.
2 While the pasta cooks, blend the pistachios and garlic in a food processor until
finely ground.
3 In a pan over medium heat, combine the ground pistachio mixture, heavy cream,
and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes until the sauce begins to
thicken.
4 Reduce the heat to low and stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
If the sauce is too thick, add some reserved pasta water until you reach the
desired consistency.
5 Add the cooked pasta to the sauce, tossing to coat well. Cook together for 1-2
minutes to let the pasta absorb the sauce.
6 Serve the pasta garnished with crushed pistachios and additional Parmesan cheese
on top.
