Preparation steps

1.

Rinse and trim the fennel. Cut into wedges, and thinly slice crosswise. Finely chop the fennel fronds, then set aside. 

2.

Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a pan, and sauté the fennel for 1-2 minutes. Add another tablespoon of the butter and the cream. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 2-3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Season to taste with parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, and nutmeg.

3.

Cook the spaghetti in boiling salted water until al dente. Drain the spaghetti, reserving some of the cooking liquid. Mix the spaghetti into the sauce with 2-3 tablespoons of the cooking liquid, and toss until combined. Adjust the seasoning, if necessary. Garnish with the fennel fronds and serve immediately.
