3-INGREDIENT FETTUCCINE ALFREDO

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with 3/4 of water, add one or two tsp of salt and turn it to boil. When the water boils add 350g of fettuccine pasta. Cook the pasta until al dente following the package instruction. Grate the Italian hard-style cheese.
• While the pasta are cooking melt 90g of butter in a long bottomed pan at medium-low fire. Do not make it boil, once the butter is melted turn off the fire.
• When the pasta are ready, remove them from the water with a "spaghetti serving spoon", place them into a large bowl or plate. Keep one cup of the pasta water, we will use it for the sauce. Turn the heat back on the pan at low fire and pour 1/4 cup of the hot pasta water into the melted butter. Mix a little bit then add all the fettuccine pasta. Stir thoroughly until they're completely coated.
• Turn off the fire and add the cheese gradually, stirring constantly until it's completely melted. If the sauce becomes too thick to your taste add a little bit more pasta water (tbsp by tbsp).
• Once all the cheese melts, serve with freshly crushed black pepper and a few chopped parsley leaves. Salt to taste and enjoy!
