Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain the noodles and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced salami and cook for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it begins to crisp around the edges.
Add the minced garlic and crushed red pepper flakes to the skillet. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
Stir in the tomato sauce and let it simmer for 3–4 minutes. If the sauce is too thick, gradually add the reserved pasta water until it reaches your desired consistency.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Let the sauce cook for another 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is smooth and heated through.
Add the cooked fettuccine noodles to the skillet and toss to coat them thoroughly in the sauce.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and season the dish with salt and black pepper to taste.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Serve hot and enjoy your Salami Noodles Alla Mama!
