Steps for preparing pasta with zucchini cream and cream cheese
Wash the zucchini, trim them and cut them into chunks. The smaller the pieces, the faster the cream will be ready. Coarsely chop an onion. Sauté it in a pan with a drizzle of oil.
Add the zucchini, salt, and pepper and cook for 7-8 minutes; they should remain slightly crunchy. Remove some zucchini from the pan. Blend the rest with the cream cheese.
Boil the pasta and drain it al dente, dress with the zucchini cream, adjust the salt, add the grated cheese, and flavor the pasta for a minute, adding a little cooking water if necessary. Serve with black pepper and the reserved zucchini.
Storage
You can prepare the cream a day in advance and store it in the fridge.
