How to Make Fettuccini Alfredo
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add fettuccine and cook according to package directions until al dente.
- While the pasta cooks, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Whisk in flour until smooth.
- Gradually whisk in the warm heavy cream, ensuring no lumps form. Continue whisking until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Reduce heat to low. Stir in grated Parmesan cheese, nutmeg, salt, and pepper until melted and smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Drain the cooked fettuccine and add it directly to the sauce. Toss to coat evenly.
- Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of fresh parsley (optional).
