Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain, reserving about 1 cup of the pasta water.
  2. While the pasta cooks, melt the butter in a large skillet or pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to brown it.
  3. Pour in the cooking cream and bring it to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until it slightly thickens.
  4. Reduce the heat to low. Gradually add the shredded mozzarella cheese, stirring constantly until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  5. Add the drained pasta to the sauce. Toss gently to coat all the pasta evenly. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of the reserved pasta water until it reaches your desired consistency.
  6. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Fettuccine Alfredo!
