Ingredients
- 1 pound fettuccine
- 6 Tablespoons butter
- 1 Tablespoon garlic minced
- 2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups heavy cream
- 1 ½ cups milk
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese room temperature
- ½ cup grated romano cheese room temperature
- salt
- black pepper
- fresh chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Cook the fettuccine according to the package instructions, until al dente. While the pasta is cooking, move on to the next steps to make the sauce.
- In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook in the butter just until fragrant, about 45-60 seconds, but do not let the garlic brown.
- Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Add the heavy cream slowly, stirring constantly, then add the milk the same way.
- Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 3-4 minutes. The sauce will continue to thicken as it simmers. Keep stirring often to prevent the sauce from burning.
- Stir in the Parmesan and Romano cheeses. Taste the sauce and season with salt and pepper.
- Drain the cooked pasta then add it to the sauce in the pot and stir to combine.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
- Store the sauce in a jar with a lid or an airtight food storage container. It will keep fresh in the refrigerator for up to one week.
