Fettuccine Alfredo

Step by stepInstructions

1. Cook the fettuccine in salted boiling water until al dente; reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.
2. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat; add the cream and simmer gently until slightly thickened, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Reduce the heat to low and whisk in the Parmesan a handful at a time until smooth.
4. Add the drained pasta and toss, adding pasta water a splash at a time until the sauce coats every strand.
5. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg; serve immediately with parsley and extra cheese.
