Method
Cooking Pasta
- 1
Boil the Pasta
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine or tagliatelle and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Drain the Pasta
Once cooked, drain the pasta in a colander, reserving about 1 cup of the pasta water for later use. Set the drained pasta aside.
Making the Sauce

Sauté Garlic
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
- 4
Add Cream
Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir frequently to combine the garlic with the cream.
- 5
Incorporate Cheese and Season
Add the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper to the sauce. Stir until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.

Add Basil
Stir in the chopped fresh basil and mix well, allowing the flavors to meld for another minute.
Combining

Combine Pasta and Sauce
Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the sauce. Toss to coat the pasta evenly. If the sauce is too thick, add reserved pasta water a little at a time until you reach the desired consistency.

Add Cherry Tomatoes
Gently fold in the halved cherry tomatoes, allowing them to warm through for about a minute.
