You'll never enjoy noodles any other way

Garlicky Butter and Oil Sauce

I was tired of making the noodles the same old way, so I tweaked the butter and milk way....a lot!

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter

1 large onion chopped to measure 1 cup

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 cup broth, any kind

1/4 cup olives oil or you can use vegetable oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Chopped fresh parsley

Grated Parmesan cheese

Directions:

Melt butter in saucepan. Saute onion and garlic until they become soft, not brown.

Add broth and olive oil and let simmer for 3 minutes.

Stir in the parsley, salt and pepper.

Pour sauce over 8 oz cooked noodles. Top with parmesan cheese. Mix very well to coat all of the noodles.

Note:

You can substitute scallions or leeks for the onions.

Will try all your recipes!



Let's get baking!


Preheat the oven to 350 degrees


 1 whole thin skinned orange, remove the stem and cut in quarters. Keep the skin on the oranges.

In a clean large food processor, add the orange quarters, 1 1/4 cups of sugar, three large eggs, 1 tsp of vanilla, 1 tsp of orange extract, 1 tbsp of Triple Sec liqueur, optional, 2/3 cup vegetable oil. 


Pulse all ingredients in the processor and then puree until mixture becomes a batter with specs of orange peel.


Add to the processor:


2 1/4 cups all purpose flour

2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt


Process all dry ingredients until they are entirely incorporated into the batter.


Bake in a greased and floured spring pan, using a parchment paper circle on top of the greased bottom.*


Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place in the center rack of the oven.  Bake for 30-40 minutes, depending on your oven.


Remove from your oven and let it cool down completely. Dust with powdered sugar or make a drizzle of 1/4 cup powdered sugar and fresh squeezed orange until thick and smooth.  Pour onto the cooled fresh orange cake.


*if you don't have a large processor, you can use a blender.


Enjoy with some espresso and close your eyes and it will feel like you're in Sicily.
