Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz Fettuccine noodles
- 6 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 1.5 cups Parmesan cheese (finely grated)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Boil a large pot of water over high heat. Add a generous pinch of salt, then cook the fettuccine noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining, then set the noodles aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.
Finely mince the garlic cloves and add them to the melted butter. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and stir well. Allow it to warm gently for 2-3 minutes.
Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet, stirring constantly to create a smooth and creamy sauce.
Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste.
Reduce the heat to low, add the cooked fettuccine noodles to the skillet, and toss them gently to coat in the Alfredo sauce. If the sauce is too thick, stir in a splash of the reserved pasta water until the desired consistency is achieved.
Taste the dish and adjust seasoning as needed.
Remove from heat and transfer the sauced noodles to a serving platter. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Alfredo noodles!
