Treat your ingredients with care...
- Parmesan cheese — Use freshly grated Parmesan for the best flavor and texture.
- Heavy cream — Make sure to use full-fat heavy cream to achieve a rich and creamy sauce.
- Fettuccine pasta — Cook the pasta until al dente to ensure it has a slight bite and doesn't become mushy in the sauce.
- Butter — Use unsalted butter to have better control over the saltiness of the dish.
- Chopped parsley — Add the parsley just before serving to add a fresh and vibrant touch to the dish.
Tips & Tricks
- For an extra burst of flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg to the sauce.
- If the sauce becomes too thick, you can thin it out by adding a splash of pasta cooking water.
- Feel free to add cooked chicken, shrimp, or vegetables to make it a heartier meal.
- Serve with a side of garlic bread for a complete fast food experience.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated the next day, but the sauce may thicken further, so add a splash of cream when reheating if needed.
Serving advice
