a lighter, faster fettuccine Alfredo

Makes 2 servings · 745 kcal per serving

Ingredients

• 200 g fettuccine
• 120 g heavy cream
• 80 g parmesan
• 2 g salt

Method

1. 1. Boil the noodles in well-salted water, pulling them a minute short of the low end of the package time, and drain without rinsing.
2. 2. Return them to the hot pan and pour in enough heavy cream to come about halfway up the noodles.
3. 3. Cook over medium-high heat until it thickens around them, 1–2 min.
4. 4. Turn off the heat, stir in the Parmesan until it melts smooth, and salt to taste. If the mixture seems too thick, stir in extra cream.

Notes

Wide egg noodles cook faster than fettuccine. The default batch serves two adults; adjust the scale for smaller portions.
