Fettuccine Alfredo

Ingredients

Fettuccine Pasta - 15.9 oz
Butter - 7.9 oz
Grated Pecorino Pepato Cheese - 7.9 oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Cook the fettuccine. Take a large pot and bring water to a boil. Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook for 8 minutes until al dente.

Step 2

Meanwhile, cut the butter into thin strips and place it in a warm dish that can hold the pasta and is convenient for mixing. Drain the pasta, but not all of it; leave about ¾ of the water. Add the pasta to the butter.

Step 3

Sprinkle the fettuccine with Parmesan cheese and add ¼ cup of the water (in which the pasta was cooked). Mix well.

Step 4

Using a large spoon and a fork, mix the pasta well until the cheese, butter, and water form a creamy sauce. Try to coat each piece of pasta. Add more water if necessary. The pasta water will help give the dish a softer and creamier taste. Stir the pasta for about 3 minutes. (For quicker preparation, you can mix the water and butter in a shallow pan and bring it to a boil, then add the pasta and Parmesan, stirring for about 2 minutes.)
