Back to Basics – Fettuccine Alfredo

Ingredients
 

  • 1 1/2 c. cream
  • 6 Tbsp. butter
  • 1 pound fettuccine noodles
  • 1 c. Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Boil water and cook fettuccine according to package directions.
  • While pasta is cooking, in a sauce pan melt butter over medium heat. Add cream and whisk together and let it simmer. Cook until sauce has reduced a little, about 5 minutes.
  • Take off heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese.
  • Just before the pasta is ready, reserve about 1/4 c. of pasta water - this helps to thin the sauce so it won't clump up at the end. Drain pasta.
  • Pour alfredo sauce over pasta. Toss the fettuccine with some tongs to get the noodles fully coated in the sauce. If the sauce gets thick or clumpy add a little of the pasta water.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!
