Here's the recipe for "FettuccineMorello a la Chef Hermann"

Ingredients:

2 oz. grated Parmgiano-Reggiano

1/2 lb. cooked fettuccine

1/2 cup heavy cream

2 oz. salted butter

1 oz. olive oil

1 tsp. chopped shallot 

1/2 tsp. chopped Italian red garlic

2 oz. fresh morels or 2-3 dried soaked morels

Salt to season

Dash of dried thyme leaves

1/2 tsp. chopped parsley

Dash of coarse ground black pepper

Preparation:

Sauté morels with shallots and garlic until soft, about 3 minutes over medium heat. Add the al dente cooked fettuccine, sauté one minute and then add heavy cream. Let it cook down over medium heat for about 3 minutes. Add half the grated cheese, blend and take it off the flame. Add seasonings and let stand for a couple of minutes. Serve with the extra grated cheese.
