You can order some bags of fresh herbs to be delivered with your food order, I presume?

ordered it for next week

Cool, did you get some sage and parsley, too?:)

The sauce also comes best with continental butter, such as President (as it's not as salty/rich as British varieties, and has a lighter, creamier flavour): https://www.sainsburys.co.uk/gol-ui/...ed-butter-250g

Oh, and DON'T even think of using spreads or marg!:spew: ;)

yup, one is a pot plant and other is just fresh sage. i will use ghee.

No mate, please **DON'T** use ghee, as it'll be too oily and heavy. Add some President butter to your order (as shown above), and it'll be perfect.

Would you like the princess to write out the recipe for the sauce?:)

im not good with a lot of butter so i thought a little ghee and some vegan alt that i have would be better.

You don't need a lot of butter, mate. For one portion, probably 25/30g, max. It's just to coat the pasta, really. It's not meant to be swimming in it. Look at my plate again above:)

Your ghee idea will ruin it, honestly. It simply doesn't belong in Italian cooking.

Marco.

i might go for summat else then... butter is inclined to make me ill. not sure what it is in it tho as i love it.. shall see how im feeling. any other suggestions??

Actually, mate, just been talking to Del and she said ghee should be fine if you don't use too much!:)

OK.. Good. I won't use much. I've a vegan sub I can add a little of that to spin it out.

No worries, as I said you just want to coat the pasta thoroughly, with a little extra on the side. It's not meant to be a 'runny sauce', like with a tomato one or something.

Ghee just didn't seem right to me, but consultation with the expert proved differently, lol!

I'll ask her to write down the method she uses tomorrow, to combine the sage and parsley with the butter (or in your case, ghee) . She's in her princess room at the moment on Facetime with Sophie.
