Creamy Alfredos

 

Creamy Alfredos


Creamy Alfredos are everyone’s favorite. They serve as a main dish providing our dining tables a gratifying appearance let it be put together for a birthday party, Eid dinners, graduation night or a date night. Apart from being a delightful treat for many, it’s recipe is surprisingly a piece of cake with everything available inside your kitchen cabinet. The four ordinary ingredients behind this extra ordinary dish are Milk, Cream, White flour and some spices available at your home.

 It’s wise to multitask to make the process quicker & efficient. Here's how to do it:

1.Take a bowl of Pasta and boil it in a large sauce pan/bowl for quicker results. Start making the sauce side by side. Put one tbsp. of white flour and add some oil. Stir it and let it be cook under a low flame until it turns brown. Now pour one glass of milk into the pan and stir it until no lumps of flour are visible. Stir it and increase the flame to medium. It will start cooking. Now add 3-4 tbsp. of whipping cream based into the sauce. Cream is the wild card here. It enhances the consistency & taste of pasta sauce with all its charm and beauty. However, the consistency can be enhanced or diminished based upon your preference.

 

2.Now the basic species one can use are salt, pepper and chili flakes. The three spices are used in everyday food and are available everywhere. Take one tea spoon of each and enhance according to your taste.

 

3.By this time your pasta would have come to boil. Separate the cooked pasta but don’t throw away its water. Here’s a trick. The water contains starch that thickens the sauce and adds taste to your sauce. This can serve as a hidden ingredient to your majesty pasta recipe.

 

4.Add the cooked pasta to your sauce and stir to combine. You can use the pasta water to lessen the thickness of your sauce that usually happens when you keep the flame very high. Stir until pasta is fully into your sauce. Turn off the flame and let the pasta rest for 5-10 minutes in order to be absorbed fully into the sauce.

 

5.Stir again. You can add parsley to garnish it. Red chili flakes adds to beauty of pasta and can be garnished in the end but take care to keep the balance in the spice.

 

6.After the pasta rests for a couple of more minutes, you will have a creamy but light Alfredo pasta that absorbs the pasta noodles perfectly.

 Classic Alfredos Pasta has been the comfort food for many. You can add other things of your choice such as chicken hot shots, sausages, tomatoes, mushrooms to make it a full fledged meal. Garlic bread can be served with the Alfredo pasta that will add to the majesty to your dining table. Along with easy recipe it takes less than 30 minutes to be fully prepared! You can replace it with magi for your late night cravings while having a movie night.
