It’s no secret, I LOVE pasta.

I wrote a whole ebook called NOODLES if you haven’t seen it yet take a look here.

Vodka sauce has always been a favorite of mine, it’s creamy and tangy and delicious.

I wanted to create a fun recipe with oranges that is similar to vodka sauce, but yet totally different.

This is just that!

The one big flavor enhancer on this sauce is the browned butter.

Browning the butter gives this sauce a rich delicious more complex flavor.

In a small saucepan brown the butter over medium heat, the flavor this brings to the sauce is irresistible.

In another pan heat the orange juice, vodka, and cream.

Once you add the flour to the butter and whisk it smooth you are ready to pour the orange juice mixture into the butter mixture.

Add some salt and you’re all set, pour this sauce over some spaghetti and enjoy!

    I love pasta, too. I think I could eat it every night (if only my husband would co-operate :). Love these flavours. Would be nice with a little shrimp, too.
