Ingredients

  • 8 ounces fettuccine
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, pressed
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup whole milk, or more, to taste
  • ⅓ cup freshly grated Parmesan
  • 1 large egg yolk, beaten
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves

Instructions

  • In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions; drain well.
  • Combine butter, garlic, heavy cream and milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer; remove from heat and stir in Parmesan and egg yolk, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling. If the mixture is too thick, add more milk as needed.
  • Stir in pasta and gently toss to combine; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Serve immediately, garnished with Parmesan and parsley, if desired.
