Fettucine Senese is a wonderful Italian pasta dish, featuring a cream sauce with proscuitto, Italian sausage, mushrooms, and Pecorino Romano cheese.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil (for pasta) while you are making sauce in another pan.
In a large soup pot or large saucepan, heat olive oil and butter until melted. Add and sauté chopped onion and garlic. Cook onions and garlic for a few minutes until softened.
Add Italian sausage (out of the casings); continue to break up sausage as it cooks. Once sausage is cooked and no longer pink, add wine. Bring mixture to a boil, then add in the flour a little at a time, stirring constantly.
Stir in whipping cream, chopped proscuitto, sage, parsley, Pecorino Romano cheese, garlic powder, and salt and pepper (to taste). Stir and cook until sauce has thickened up a bit and is smooth. Continue to cook sauce on a low simmer for 10 minutes. Stir frequently.
While sauce is cooking, prepare pasta according to package instructions. Drain. Toss cooked, drained pasta with the sauce. Mix well, to combine. Transfer pasta to a warm serving plate or individual plates. Garnish with dried herbs and additional grated cheese, if desired, and serve.
The recipe makes a lot of sauce! You will probably have some left over.
