Chef tips
For a velvety and well-combined Alfredo sauce, save a bit of the pasta cooking water and add it gradually to the cream sauce; the starch in the water helps the sauce coat the fettuccine perfectly. To make this a complete meal, add steamed broccoli florets or pan-seared mushrooms. For kids, serve with a generous sprinkle of shredded cheese on top.
