Hello, pasta lovers! Craving a creamy and delicious Alfredo sauce? This simple yet indulgent recipe will help you create the perfect sauce to elevate your pasta dishes. Let’s dive into this rich and flavorful Alfredo sauce!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Melt the Butter:
   • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
2. Cook the Garlic:
   • Add minced garlic to the melted butter and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
3. Add Heavy Cream:
   • Pour in the heavy cream and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce starts to thicken.
4. Stir in Parmesan Cheese:
   • Reduce heat to low and gradually stir in the freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Continue to stir until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is smooth.
5. Season the Sauce:
   • Add salt, black pepper, and nutmeg (if using) to the sauce. Stir well to combine.
6. Simmer and Thicken:
   • Let the sauce simmer on low heat for another 2-3 minutes until it reaches your desired consistency. If the sauce is too thick, you can add a little more cream or milk to thin it out.
7. Serve:
   • Remove the sauce from heat. Toss it with your favorite cooked pasta, such as fettuccine, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

And there you have it! A rich and creamy Alfredo sauce that’s perfect for your pasta dishes. Enjoy this luscious sauce with fettuccine, chicken, shrimp, or vegetables for a delightful meal. Happy cooking!
