Ingredients
  

  • 4 tbsp 57g Butter
  • 3 cloves 13g Garlic, minced
  • 1.5 cups 375ml Heavy Cream
  • 1.5 cups 80g Parmesan Reggiano, grated
  • ¼ tsp White Pepper
  • Dash of Salt
  • 10 oz 235g Fettuccine (dry)

Instructions
 

  • In a large pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, making sure it doesn’t burn.
  • Slowly pour in the heavy cream and let it warm up until it starts to simmer gently.
  • Gradually add the grated Parmesan, stirring continuously until fully melted and the sauce becomes smooth and creamy.
  • Season with white pepper and salt (optional) and stir well to enhance the flavors.
  • Meanwhile, cook the fettuccine in boiling salted water until "al dente," then drain, reserving a cup of pasta water.
  • Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and toss well to coat every strand. If the sauce is too thick, gradually add some reserved pasta water until you achieve the perfect consistency.
  • Serve immediately with an extra sprinkle of grated Parmesan!
