Creamy pasta dishes?!


Question:

Creamy pasta dishes?

Everytime i go to italian restraunts there is always loads of amazing creamy pasta dishes. But i only know how to make Carbonara and macaroni cheese.

Can you all give me some easy creamy pasta dishes, preferably not with too many fancy ingredients.

Also how do you make homemade garlic bread without it tasting like raw garlic with butter?

This is really quick and easy:

Ingredients
170g/6oz pasta
1 lemon, juice and zest only
? glass white wine
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 packet baby mozzarella, roughly torn
4 tbsp double cream
handful rocket



Method
1. Cook the pasta to tender according to the packet instructions.
2. In a pan simmer the wine, lemon juice and zest, garlic and half the mozzarella for a few minutes.
3. Blend using a handheld blender.
4. Add the cream, remaining mozzarella and rocket and stir through.
5. Drain the pasta and add to the pan.
6. Stir through and serve.

For Garlic Butter:

1/4 cup butter
crushed garlic, to taste (start with a cautious two medium cloves)
2 teaspoons finely minced parsley (optional)
1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)

Work the butter on a plate with a knife or spoon until it is slightly soft. You don’t want the butter too soft. Work in the crushed garlic, chopped parsley and lemon juice. Pour off any extra lemon juice. Refrigerate until firm. Put a pat of garlic butter on top of the hot food as it is served.
