Fettuccine Alfredo
Fettuccine is a form of pasta most popular in Roman and Tuscan cuisine. It is a flat thick pasta which can be cooked and eaten in a variety of ways. Alfredo Fettuccine is fettuccine pasta tossed in butter, cheese and cream. It has become very popular in Pakistan now. After all who doesn't like cheese. It is not only pleasant to look at but very tasty too, and the melt in the mouth creamy consistency of the dish makes it to the list of favorites.
I have tried this pasta in a variety of restaurants here, and I have noticed that each and everyone makes it differently. The only common thing is that they serve it to you steaming hot, this pasta is at it's best when steaming hot. Other then that you can experiment with the different ingredients and make it the way you would like to. I have made this a few times, every time slightly different from the last one. I used to skip the last 3 steps and the cream directly in the sauce until a friend of mine shared there recipe of penne pasta and told me these steps, well thanks Ezzah! :P
I wanted to make sure that i share the best recipe with you all, so i gave it another try yesterday and this time it came out perfect!
So here i am now! :D
