I want to make alfredo type noodles... need a recipe?

Question

I can't really cook anything... but I want to make noodles with some type of fettuccini alfredo sauce. Something simple... milk cheese... easy to make. Doesn't necessarily have to taste the same as alfredo. Just something using parmesean cheese and milk... something simple. A short simple recipe for idiots.. thanks.

Answer 1

Well, if you really want to use milk, you are going to have to thicken it a bit to get that nice alfredo sauce consistency.

Put a tablespoon of butter in a pan, melt and stir in a tablespoon of flour . Keep stirring until nice and bubbly and flour just starts to brown then slowly add a cup of milk, stirring all the time. It will thicken. Remove from heat add salt & pepper and grated parmesan cheese. Pour over your already cooked noodles!
Real alfredo sauce is much richer and uses lots of butter and Cream.

A super quick cheater way is to just heat butter and cream and mix with your cheese and stir into your pasta.

Answer 2

Olive Garden's Garlic Alfredo Sauce

1/2 cup butter
2 tablespoons cream cheese
1 pint heavy cream
1-2 teaspoon garlic powder (start with 1 and taste)
salt & freshly ground black pepper
2/3 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese or romano cheese

In a medium to large saucepan melt the butter over medium heat.

Add the cream cheese and whisk to smooth and melted.

Whisk in the heavy cream.

Season with the garlic powder, salt and pepper.

Bring to a good simmer and whisk frequently until sauce thickens, around 25 minutes.

Remove from heat and stir in cheese.

Taste and adjust seasoning's.

P/s:I normally substitute heavy cream for 1/2 and 1/2. I guess it depends on your prefrence.
