Easy Alfredo Sauce

• порції: 2 servings

Інгредієнти

- 1 cup heavy cream

- 1/4 cup butter

- 1 clove garlic, minced (you can sub out for garlic powder if you don't have it)

- Freshly grated cheese of some Parmesan variety (I recommend either pecorino romano or parmigiano reggiano but whatever you have access to that you like will work), anywhere from half a cup to 2 cups depending on your taste preferences. Freshly grated is important because it melts in the sauce way easier than the pre-grated stuff.

- Parsley, dried or fresh, to taste (optional)

Напрямки

1. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.

2. Add heavy cream to saucepan, whisking until combined. Let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes in the saucepan.

3. Add garlic and the parm cheese to the mixture, then whisk until smooth. Add the cheese in batches and taste-test as you whisk. (Add your parsley here if you're using it.)

4. Serve with cooked pasta, garnish with freshly cracked pepper.

Нотатки

- You can set this sauce off to the side on Low heat to let it thicken up while you cook pasta or other sides. Just give it a stir every now and then.

- You can add bacon bits after step 3 to make bacon alfredo sauce. I recommend saving some as a topping for plating purposes if you're going to do that.

- Use a garlic press (like Oxo's GoodGrips garlic press) instead of buying the minced stuff in a jar. Just pop one clove into the press, kersmash, put garlic into saucepot, profit.
