Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Fettuccine pasta
- 85 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 milliliters Heavy cream
- 120 grams Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add fettuccine pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente, usually about 10-12 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.
While the pasta is cooking, melt the unsalted butter in a large pan over medium heat.
Stir in the heavy cream and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring often, until the mixture is warmed through.
Lower the heat to medium-low and slowly whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese. Continue stirring until the cheese has fully melted and the sauce is smooth.
Season the sauce with salt and ground black pepper. Adjust quantities as desired to taste.
Add the drained fettuccine pasta to the sauce, tossing to coat the noodles evenly. If the sauce is too thick, slowly add the reserved pasta water, a few tablespoons at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
Cook the pasta in the sauce for another 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve the Fettuccine All'Alfredo immediately, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
