Description

This Easy Alfredo Sauce will surprise you with how easy it to make and delicious it is. It only requires a few ingredients to make and can be made in less than 10 minutes.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup all-purposed flour
  • 3 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoon parmesan cheese
  • 1 pound fettuccine pasta (or any type of pasta of your choice)


Instructions

  1. Over medium to high heat, add unsalted butter into a 2-quart saucepan; once it has melted, lower the heat to medium to low, add flour and continuously mix for 2-3 minutes. You want the flour to cook a little if it begins to bubble lower down the heat.
  2. Over medium heat, add milk to the saucepan and continuously mix for 5-7 minutes until the milk has thickened and coats the back of a spoon.
  3. Once it has thickened, turn off the heat, add black pepper, salt, and parmesan cheese; mix well until the cheese has melted.
  4. Pour sauce over your favorite pasta and enjoy.

Notes

  • This sauce makes enough for 1 pound of pasta. 
  • The sauce is best made in a heavy bottom pot, for example, a cast iron.
