Spaghetti With Orange And Lemon Zest
  1. Begin by peeling and cutting the peel of the fruit into thin strands. Juice both oranges and lemons, putting the juice aside. Cook the peels in boiling water for 5 minutes – this will remove some of the bitterness, and then drain.

  2. In a frying pan, melt the butter, add the onion and cook until translucent. Increase the heat to medium-high, pour in a large splash of wine white and simmer until the liquid is reduced. Add the drained fruit peels, orange and lemon juice, and single cream. Simmer for 5 minutes, before seasoning to taste with salt and pepper.

  3. Bring a pot of water to boil and cook your spaghetti. If you prefer your pasta al dente, make sure to cook the spaghetti 1 or 2 minutes less than instructed. You can then cook the spaghetti for an additional minute in the frying pan with the orange and lemon zest sauce. Buon Appetito!
