Fettucine alfredo was always what I preferred to order above all else at a restaurant when I was a kid.
And it still is, now that I’m an adult! It just made me feel so fancy because it seemed like such a grown-up dish.
So if alfredo pasta is also a childhood favorite of yours, TikToker @feeedmi has a recipe you can follow to recreate that nostalgia and indulge in utterly delicious and creamy fare.
Furthermore, it does not include store-bought alfredo sauce.
Jarred sauce is okay if you’re in a pinch, but most of the time, it’s got a weird artificial taste to it.
With this recipe, you will create your own fresh, garlicky sauce that will make for a hearty meal.
“Growing up, I never bought pasta sauce from the store because my mom taught me that homemade is healthier. So here’s her fifteen-minute alfredo pasta recipe,” she began in the introduction of her video.
First, boil your pasta according to the instructions on the package. Then, in a separate pan, combine three cloves of garlic, a tablespoon of basil and oregano, and a tablespoon of flour as a thickener.
Next, add in two cups of milk, a half cup of mozzarella, and one-third cup of parmesan cheese. Stir everything together.
Then, add in some pasta water and some salt and pepper.
