Steps:
- Put a pot of salted water on to boil. Meanwhile, whisk the cream, lemon zest, salt and pepper together.
- If you are using dried pasta, get it cooking right away. If you are using fresh pasta, it will cook in just 2 minutes, so hold off until the sauce has reduced.
- Pour the cream mixture into a saucepan over medium heat. Bring the cream to a steady boil, and let it reduce by half. This will take about 5 minutes. Then reduce the heat to low.
- This is the time to start cooking your fresh pasta. Before you drain the pasta, remove 2-3 tablespoons of the pasta water from the pot. This starchy water helps bind the sauce to the noodles. Drain the pasta.
- Add the pasta to the cream sauce. Stir in the lemon juice and 2 tablespoons pasta water. Increase heat to medium. Stir frequently, for two minutes. Add an extra tablespoon of pasta water if the sauce becomes too thick.
- Plate the pasta, and top with the fresh parmesan.
