FETTUCCINE ALFREDO

Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to package directions. In a saucepan or skillet over low heat, warm the butter and cream. Season with salt and pepper. Place half of the Parmesan into a large serving bowl. Pour the warm butter/cream mixture over the top. Drain the pasta and immediately pour it into the bowl. Toss a couple of times, and then sprinkle in the other half of the Parmesan. Toss to combine, thinning with pasta water if necessary. Serve immediately as a main course or accompaniment to meat or salad. Delicious!

FETTUCCINE ALFREDO

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, stir the clotted cream, butter and cornflour over a low-ish heat and bring to a low simmer. Turn off the heat and keep warm.
• Meanwhile, put the cheese and nutmeg in a small bowl and add a good grinding of black pepper, then stir everything together (don't add any salt at this stage).
• Put the pasta in another pan with 2 tsp salt, pour over some boiling water and cook following pack instructions (usually 3-4 mins). When cooked, scoop some of the cooking water into a heatproof jug or mug and drain the pasta, but not too thoroughly.
• Add the pasta to the pan with the clotted cream mixture, then sprinkle over the cheese and gently fold everything together over a low heat using a rubber spatula. When combined, splash in 3 tbsp of the cooking water. At first, the pasta will look wet and sloppy: keep stirring until the water is absorbed and the sauce is glossy. Check the seasoning before transferring to heated bowls. Sprinkle over some chives or parsley, then serve immediately.

CHICKEN FETTUCCINE ALFREDO

Steps:

• Cream the butter in a bowl with a wooden spoon until it is light and fluffy.
• Beat in the cream a little at a time, and then beat in 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, a few tbsp at a time.
• Cover the bowl and set it aside (refrigerate if not ready to use, but bring to room temperature before use).
• Prepare the chicken and keep it warm.
• You can use leftover chopped cooked chicken, or dice skinless, boneless chicken meat and saute in olive oil or butter a few minutes until cooked but still tender.
• Season as you like.
• Set a large pasta bowl or casserole in a 250 oven to heat while you cook the fettucine.
• Bring the water and salt to a rolling boil in a large stock pot.
• Drop in the fettuccine and stir gently with a wooden spoon or fork for a few moments to prevent strands from sticking.
• Boil, stirring occasionally until the pasta is tender (soft, but al dente or resistant to bite).
• Immediately drain the pasta into a colander.
• Make sure it's completely drained before transferring to the hot pasta bowl.
• Add the chicken and the creamed butter and cheese mixture and toss with the fettuccine and chicken until every strand is well coated.
• Season with salt and freshly grated pepper.
• Serve at once and pass grated Parmesan cheese.
