To Die For Fettuccine Alfredo image

This is a recipe that I created by modifying my mother's recipe. My boyfriend is a fettuccine Alfredo connoisseur and he scrapes the pan every time! I get nothing but rave reviews when I make this dish. I must warn you, this recipe is not for the health conscious. Enjoy!

24 ounces dry fettuccini pasta
1 cup butter
¾ pint heavy cream
salt and pepper to taste

Nonna Susanna's recipe for meat sauce and pasta that is baked in the oven and great for using leftovers.

Provided by MKK

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 1h35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
2 red onions, finely chopped
½ pound ground beef, or more to taste
½ pound bacon, chopped
¼ cup white wine, or as needed
2 (26 ounce) packages chopped tomatoes (such as Pomi®)
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
4 tablespoons white sugar, or more to taste
salt to taste
1 (16 ounce) package rotini pasta (such as Barilla®)
4 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, or more to taste
⅓ pound chopped provolone cheese
⅓ pound chopped mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over low heat. Add onions and cook slowly until moisture has evaporated but onions are not dark brown, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef and bacon. Increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring frequently, until meat is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Pour wine into the skillet and cook until evaporated, 1 to 3 minutes. Add chopped tomatoes and tomato paste. Fill tomato paste can with water and pour in. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook sauce, uncovered, until oil no longer appears on the surface, about 30 minutes. Add sugar and salt; cook and stir until dissolved, about 3 minutes more.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the rotini pasta at a boil for about 5 minutes; drain and rinse with cold water. Return pasta to the pot and add a splash of olive oil to prevent sticking.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9x13-inch baking dishes.
  • Add about 1 cup sauce and 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese to the pot with the cooked pasta.
  • Spoon a thin layer of pasta into each prepared baking dish. Top each with a thin layer of provolone and mozzarella cheeses. Add sauce. Repeat layers with remaining pasta, cheeses, and sauce; finish with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until hot and melted, 30 to 45 minutes.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 cups spinach leaves
2 cups basil leaves
1 cup walnuts or whole blanched almonds
3/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
4 cloves garlic
Juice of 1 lemon
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Kosher salt
1 pound large pasta shells
2 cups ricotta cheese
1/4 cup olive oil
Freshly ground black pepper
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest
2 pounds heirloom cherry tomatoes, quartered

Steps:

  • For the pesto: Put the spinach, basil, nuts, olive oil, Parmesan, garlic and lemon juice in a food processor and pulse until well combined. Transfer to a bowl and stir in some salt and pepper.
  • For the pasta: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the shells and cook until al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside, making sure to reserve a cup or so of pasta-cooking liquid.
  • While the pasta cooks, mix the ricotta with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and some salt and pepper in a small bowl. Mix the breadcrumbs with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, the Parmesan cheese, lemon zest and some salt and pepper in another small bowl.
  • When the pasta is ready, put it in a large bowl and mix in the pesto, tomatoes, and enough reserved cooking liquid to make a sauce. Transfer the mixture to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, dollop with the seasoned ricotta and top with the breadcrumb mixture. Bake until golden and bubbly, 25 to 30 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

Time 1h55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

Extra-virgin olive oil, for cooking
1 to 2 cloves garlic, minced
One to two 28-ounce cans marinara sauce
1 bunch fresh basil
Salt and pepper
4 cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
6 eggs
1 pound ground beef
1 pound ground pork
1 pound ground veal
1/2 cup panko, or more as needed
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan
3 pinches kosher salt
3 pinches ground black pepper
2 eggs
Canola oil, for frying
2 cups fresh ricotta

Steps:

  • For the sauce: Cover the bottom of a medium saucepan with oil and garlic and cook over medium heat until garlic browns. Add sauce, basil, salt and pepper. Cook on medium heat for 15 minutes.
  • For the pappardelle pasta: Make a bed of all-purpose flour, then make a well and add eggs. Fold all together, adding in more flour if needed, and knead until a dough ball is formed, then set aside and cover for 30 minutes.
  • Run dough through a pasta sheeter to form pappardelle pasta (broad flat noodles).
  • For the meatballs: Combine the beef, pork, veal, panko, Parmesan, salt, pepper and eggs in a bowl. Mixture should be on the drier side. If need be, add more panko. Form quarter-size meatballs. Heat a medium frying pan with oil and fry each meatball to a golden brown color.
  • For the pasta al forno: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Add sauce to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, along with the ricotta. Stir together, then add mozzarella and the meatballs. Let the cheese melt down.
  • Meanwhile, drop the pasta into boiling salted water for about 7 minutes. Strain and add to the baking dish. Mix around, then bake in oven for 10 minutes.

This recipe by TV chef David Rocco was originally made with scamorza, which is a smoked mozzarella. I wasn't able to get any so I used fontina instead. The measurements given for the cheeses are what I used as the original recipe was to taste.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and tools you need. This will help you save time and prevent any mishaps.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh ingredients always yield the best results. If possible, try to use fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices.
  • Don't Overcook the Pasta: Fettuccine pasta should be cooked al dente, which means it should be slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will become mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Use a Good Quality Cheese: The type of cheese you use will greatly affect the flavor of your dish. Use a good quality Parmesan or Pecorino Romano cheese.
  • Don't Skimp on the Sauce: The sauce is what brings the dish together. Be generous with the sauce and make sure it is flavorful.
  • Bake Until Golden Brown: The pasta should be baked until the top is golden brown and bubbly. This will give the dish a nice crust and help to lock in the flavors.

Conclusion:

Fettuccine pasta al forno is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich and flavorful sauce, tender pasta, and crispy cheese crust, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
