Pasta - in white sauce
It was Sunday afternoon and suddenly we all wanted to have pasta. Though I love pastas in tomato base, the hubby loves white sauce. So I do some searching on the internet and whola ... I stumble across this easy recipe for Alfredo sauce. I try it and it turns out to be real yum ! So here it is for you to try :-).
Disclaimer: This dish is definitly not for the health conscious people :)
Ingredients: Pasta - any type. I had taken fusilli. Don't take that Sunfeast pasta
Milk - 1/2 litre
Olive oil or butter
fresh cream - 1/2 cup
black pepper
oregano seasoning
Garlic: 7-8 cloves
salt to taste
wheat flour - 1/4 cup
cheese... lots of it :-)
Recipe: Cook pasta as per instructions on the packet and keep it aside. Make sure that the pasta does not stick to each other.
Heat olive oil in a pan. If you can't get olive like I did, you can use butter. Chop garlic cloves in small pieces and saute them in the oil. Add cream to this and stir lightly. Take quantity of the cream as per taste, if you like creamy pasta add more cream. Now add some flour to it and mix properly. You can lightly roast the flour before adding so it will mix properly in the cream without forming chunks. Now add milk to this mixture and black pepper powder and pinch of salt. Don't add too much salt. Keep stirring the mixture and bing it to boil over medium to small flame. Don't boil too much, as this souze thiken very quickly.
You can adjust quntity of milk depending on how thick you want the sauce. If you can get parmesan cheese, it's great otherwise our regular cheddar cheese will also do even the mozerella works ok. If you are using cheddar cheese you might want to add this chhese to our souce while it is boiling so the cheese also melts properly.
Now take the cooked pasta in a serving dish. Spread grated cheese over it and pour our boiling souce over it. Garnish with oregano seasoning and serve hot !
