Ingredients

450g fusilli pasta
1.5 tablespoons butter
2 shallots, minced
240ml heavy whipping cream
200g fresh spinach
115g Gorgonzola cheese
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Step 1
Begin by bringing a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the fusilli in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, approximately 12 minutes.
Step 2
Meanwhile, in a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté the minced shallots until soft and translucent, for about 3 to 5 minutes. Pour in the cream and heat through for an additional 3 to 5 minutes. Add the spinach and crumble in the Gorgonzola cheese, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook until the spinach is wilted and the sauce has thickened, approximately 4 minutes.
Step 3
Once the fusilli is cooked, drain it and toss it with the creamy sauce. Serve immediately and enjoy!
