Place the bulb on a piece of aluminum foil, drizzle with the olive oil, then wrap it tightly with the foil.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Roast<\/strong>: Place the wrapped garlic in the oven and roast for approximately 30-35 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and caramelized. Let it cool, then squeeze the soft garlic out of its skin into a bowl. Set aside.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4>Cooking the Pasta<\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Boil the Pasta<\/strong>: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve about 1 cup (240 ml) of pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4>Making the Alfredo Sauce<\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Melt Butter<\/strong>: In a heavy skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the roasted garlic and saut\u00e9 for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Add Cream and Milk<\/strong>: Pour in the heavy cream and whole milk, stirring continuously until the mixture begins to simmer.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Incorporate Parmesan<\/strong>: Gradually add the Parmesan cheese, stirring until it melts completely and the sauce thickens. If the sauce is too thick, use reserved pasta water, a little at a time, to reach your desired consistency.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Season<\/strong>: Add salt and pepper to taste. <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Combine with Pasta<\/strong>: Add the cooked fettuccine to the sauce, tossing well to ensure all the noodles are evenly coated in the creamy garlic goodness.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4>Serving<\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Serve While Hot<\/strong>: Plate the pasta immediately once it&#8217;s well-coated. Garnish with optional dried Italian herbs and chopped parsley for an extra pop of color and flavor.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Enjoy!<\/strong>: This dish pairs excellently with a fresh green salad or crusty bread.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Recipe Summary<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Preparation Time<\/strong>: Around 50 minutes<br \/>\n<strong>Calories<\/strong>: Approximately 650 calories per serving (recipe serves 4)<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy this indulgent and aromatic Roasted Garlic Alfredo as the centerpiece of your next meal.
