• Once the veggies are tender and cooked, pour in the heavy cream and milk and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to a simmer and stir in the cheese, half-cup at a time. Add more cheese as needed if the mixture is not thick enough. If the mixture is too thick, add more milk as needed.
• Stir in the lime juice and cilantro and turn off the heat if the crema has reached the desired consistency (about 15-20 minutes). Add more paprika and salt if desired.
• Drain the pasta, and reserve some pasta water. Mix in the pasta and pasta water with the crema.
