Fettuccine Alfredo with Spinach

- 2 comments

I had this pasta in Olive Garden and I simply loved it and when I checked, it is a easy recipe and simple ingredients and definitely beat the price, why not make at home? So I tried and it came out beautifully. Now it becomes our routine dish :) I used Dececco brand fettuccine. It does make a lot, take one big hand full of fettuccine is enough for 2 people. Left overs wasn't so great the next day!

Ingredients:
  • Fettuccine - 1/2 lb
  • Salt - 2 tsp
  • Water - 4 cups

>for Seasoning:
  • Butter (Unsalted) - 1 Quarter
  • Garlic - 2 to 3 flakes
  • Spinach  chopped - 1 cup

>for Richness mixture
  • Heavy Cream/Whip Whole milk - 1 &  1/2 cup
  • Shredded Mozzarella Cheese - 1/4 cup
  • Black Pepper Powder - 2 tsp


Time Required : 30 mins.

Method:

Step 01) Take a big pan & boil the water and then add fettuccine cook them until tender. Drain in a colander and preserve the pasta water 1/4 cup

 

Step 02) Heat a butter in a medium flame add chopped garlic, when it is little roast add washed chopped spinach and stir fry for 2 minutes

 

Step 03) Add cooked pasta and preserved pasta water  and mix nicely. Add heavy cream, mozzarella cheese and pepper and cook it all comes out as nice thick sauce format  (be generous to add the cheese to increase the richness)

 



Tips:
  1. Use garlic according to pasta else more garlic flavor spoils the dish. 
  2. For variation, you can use boiled broccoli instead of spinach
  3. Instead of preserved pasta water you can use milk to increase the richness
