Smitten's Alfredo Sauce
A lil' bit of cream makes the pasta go down in the most delightful way!
Ingredients
- Single serve *2oz* 📍 Made for 16oz noodles
- Heavy Cream 1/4 cup 📍 2 - 2.5 cups
- Shredded Parmesan Cheese *Fresh Is Best!* 1/4 cup. 📍 2 - 2.5 cups
- Minced Fresh Garlic *adjust to preference* 1/4 of one clove 📍 .5 - 1 whole clove
- Pepper, Salt, & Onion Powder *Add to taste & personal preference*
- Butter *Add to taste & personal preference on sautéing minced garlic prior to adding the rest of the ingredients & after if desired*
- A Splash of Pasta water to blend it all in. *Add to taste & personal preference*
- Parsley *completely optional & add for color, taste, & making it fancy & personal preference*
Cooking Instructions
- You will need a 1" thick frying or sauce pan depending upon how much noodles are going to be added to it. Knife & cutting board *Unless if you use the premade minced garlic & pre cut parsley*. You will also need a stirring utensil.
- Place frying/sauce pan on burner & set to medium low heat & keep it that way until your sauce is ready for your pasta. Add desired amount of butter & garlic to your dish, sauté until golden. *Skip this step if you don't want garlic in your alfredo sauce*
- Add heavy cream, your preferred seasonings & if you like add butter & your preference on pasta water to the sauce. Stir occasionally. Sauce will start to bubble up & that is when your sauce is ready. Take it off the heat & either add pasta or add it to a container to be placed in your fridge.
- Use within 3-5 days, refrigerate leftovers
Stick around for the next one.
