    A fav at our place! Substituted the truffle oil with Olive oil but otherwise it's delicious as is

    It was awesome. I too used olive oil instead of truffle. Added some mushrooms to the sauce. Also sprinkled some black pepper & paprika powder.

    Would it be ok to substitute truffle oil for olive oil?
