Fettuccini with Seafood

Makes 6 servings
Gil
Have all the ingredients ready before you start.  Serve with a green salad and warm bread.

Ingredients
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 package of fettuccini, 500 grams
½ cup butter
½ cup half and half cream
1 cup mock crab meat, chop in bite size pieces
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese plus ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 ½ tsp. chopped parsley

Instructions
Set a large platter in 100 F oven to keep warm.

Fill a large pot half full with water.  Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.  Add the oil and the fettuccini and cook uncovered according to box instructions or about 10 minutes until tender.  Stir occasionally with a wooden spoon so the noodles do not stick together.

Meanwhile, put the butter and cream in a small pot.  Place over medium heat until the butter melts.  Add the crab meat and stir.  Remove from heat and stir in ½ cup of Parmesan cheese.

Drain the cooked fettuccini, in a colander.  Pour noodles into the warmed platter. Pour the sauce over the noodles.  Toss lightly with 2 forks to mix.

Sprinkle the fettuccini with ¼ cup of Parmesan cheese and the parsley.  Serve at once.

Variation:  Use cooked shrimp or other seafood instead of crab meat.
