Ingredients
-
8 -10 ounces pasta (the kind in the refrigerator section of the store is best since it cooks much faster, in about 3 min)
-
3/4 cup half-and-half
-
3/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated (NOT the dry Kraft kind!) or 3/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese (NOT the dry Kraft kind!)
-
1/4 cup butter
-
fresh-grated black pepper
-
salt
-
1 garlic clove, minced very fine
Instructions
- Boil water for pasta.
- In a large frying pan (a steep-sided wok is ideal) melt butter on very low heat.
- Start cooking pasta.
- In frying pan, combine half and half, Parmesan, garlic, salt and pepper with melted butter.
- Mix thoroughly and turn the heat up to medium (just hot enough to begin melting cheese).
- Pasta should be nearly done by now; drain and pour into frying pan with sauce ingredients.
- Toss together and serve immediately.
