Pasta

Method

Pasta Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Fettuccine

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually around 8-10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Drain the Pasta

    Once cooked, drain the pasta in a colander and reserve about 1 cup of the pasta water for later use.

Sauce Preparation

  1. 3

    Melt the Butter

    In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.

  2. 4

    Add Garlic

    Once the butter is melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  3. 5

    Stir in the Cream

    Pour in the heavy cream and stir well to combine. Allow it to simmer for 2-3 minutes.

  4. 6

    Add Cheese and Seasonings

    Gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt, black pepper, and ground nutmeg, stirring to combine.

  5. 7

    Combine with Pasta

    Add the drained fettuccine to the sauce, tossing to coat the noodles thoroughly. If the sauce is too thick, add some reserved pasta water, a little at a time, to reach desired consistency.

Garnishing

  1. 8

    Serve the Dish

    Transfer the creamy Alfredo noodles to serving plates. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and added flavor.
