½ cup Parmesan cheese

½ stick salted butter

1 oz fresh black truffle
-
fresh parsley
-

Instructions
- Bring a large pan of water to the boil, salt it generously (1 tbsp) and then cook the pasta until al dente. (Usually 1 minute less than the packet suggests)

- Add the butter to a heavy based skillet and let it melt over a low heat.
- Once the butter has melted grate in about ¾ of the black truffle.
- Stir well and then remove from the heat.
- Reserve ½ cup of the pasta cooking water and then drain the pasta.
- Stir the pasta into the butter, along with ¼ cup of the reserved water. Stir gently over a low heat until everything is combined. Add more water if it starts to feel sticky.
