Let me start with the Creamy Carbonara Delight:This one is my aunt’s favourite. She used to make this dish only on special occasions. This is how you prepare it :
1. Start your Christmas lunch on a high note with a classic and indulgent Fatti’s & Moni’s Carbonara. Cook the pasta to perfection, and toss it with a rich and creamy sauce made from eggs, Parmesan cheese, crispy bacon, and freshly ground black pepper. The velvety texture and savoury flavours of this dish will leave your guests craving for more.
2. Festive Pesto Pasta: This one is my mom’s favourite. She literally prepares this dish every Christmas. And it always
Add that burst of vibrant flavours to her Christmas table with Fattis n Monis Pesto Pasta. Here is how to it :Prepare a homemade pesto sauce using fresh basil leaves, pine nuts, garlic, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil. Toss the cooked pasta in this aromatic sauce and garnish with cherry tomatoes and grated Parmesan. The combination of the fragrant pesto and al dente pasta will surely impress your guests.
3. Baked Macaroni and Cheese Extravaganza:This one is my sister in law ‘s favourite. I remember vividly during winter holidays she always makes us feel warm and welcome by cooking this dish comforting and cheesy delight, Fattis n Monis Macaroni to its perfection . She always Cook the macaroni until tender, and then layer it with a luscious cheese sauce made from a blend of cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan. Then top it off with breadcrumbs for a crispy finish and bake until golden brown. My cousins and I we always find ourselves asking for seconds.
4. If you are a sea food lover like me and you want to add a touch of elegance to your Christmas lunch, then you better try this Fatti’s & Moni’s Linguine . This dish is delicious when is well paired with succulent seafood , I’m telling you the combo communicates . You gonna have to Sauté shrimp, scallops, and mussels in garlic-infused olive oil, and toss them with perfectly cooked linguine. Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a dish that will impress even the most discerning palates.
