It's saffron, shallots, marjoram, parsley, lemon peel, and cayenne creamed into butter and later melted into sauteed red onions, garlic, sliced roasted red and yellow bells and spinach. It's then tossed with fresh fettuccine and toasted pine nuts. Topped off with some Parmesan and pepper.
This dish has a lot going on in it, there are a ton of flavors, but the saffron definitely stands out, perhaps a bit too much to me. I'd use less next time. And a nice slice of bread would've been so money, especially to sop up some of that butter sauce.
Greens is my favorite restaurant in the city, right now. I like it. Given the ingredients and skill required to perform the dishes they do, it really isn't that pricey either.
This particular recipe cost about $15 in ingredients plus roughly 2.5 hours of cooking... I'm still slow with a knife and what not.
The number of servings is two to four. I would guess the dish is about $15 for one serving, but it's going to be done correctly with better ingredients.
