Roman Style Fettuccine With Alfredo Sauce Food

ALFREDO'S OF ROME'S ORIGINAL FETTUCCINE ALFREDO

Steps:

• Cook the fettuccine noodles in 1 gallon of salted boiling water for three minutes.
• At the same time, mix the butter at room temperature in a bowl with the grated cheese until the cheese almost dissolves, forming a smooth cream. If using a mixer, this should not take more than three minutes at which time the noodles will be ready.
• Strain the pasta leaving just a small amount of water and toss the noodles with the Alfredo sauce. Plate the preparation.
• Cheese lovers may want to sprinkle additional grated cheese on top.

ALFREDO SAUCE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl or large measuring cup, whisk the cream and egg yolk together until combined; set aside.
• In a medium saucepan, heat the butter over medium-high. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant and sizzling, about 2 minutes. Pour the cream mixture into the garlic butter, reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until mixture is hot but not boiling, about 5 minutes.
• Whisk in the Parmesan little by little, and cook over medium, whisking frequently, until creamy and thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Season to taste with pepper.

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.
