Meanwhile, in medium frying pan, melt butter. Add cream; bring to the boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, about 5 minutes or until sauce reduces by half. Add cheese; stir over low heat about 2 minutes or until cheese melts.
Add sauce to pasta; toss gently to coat, season to taste. Sprinkle fettuccine alfredo with parsley.
Top tip for this fettuccine alfredo recipe
Do not reduce the cream too rapidly, or by too much, as it can burn. Check and stir once or twice and take the pan off the heat when it is reduced correctly.
How much cream do I need for the alfredo sauce?
