Pasta and Sauce Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Alfredo Sauce

    In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  3. 3

    Add Cream

    Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, allowing it to cook for about 2-3 minutes to thicken.

  4. 4

    Incorporate Cheese

    Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese to the sauce, stirring continuously until melted and smooth. If the sauce is too thick, you can add a little more cream or some pasta water to reach your desired consistency.

  5. 5

    Season the Sauce

    Add salt and black pepper to taste. Mix well to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.

  6. 6

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Add the cooked fettuccine pasta directly into the Alfredo sauce. Toss the pasta until it is well coated with the sauce.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Transfer the pasta to serving plates and garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Enjoy your homemade Alfredo!
