A delicious twist on simple Alfredo sauce
I find that simple Alfredo sauce is delicious but can become a little redundant, so I came up with this tasty little alternative recipe below. It is one of my hunny`s favourites and I hope it can become one of yours too.

1. Instead of 4 tbsp of butter use 2 tbsps of butter and 2 tbsps of olive oil
2. When garlic is sizzling add about 1 tsp of red chilli flakes, 1 tsp of anchovy paste, and 4/5 basil leaves
3. ***Optional- at this point you can add about ¾ cup of white wine and allow it to simmer for 3 or 4 minutes, until it reduces a little. This adds a nice acidic note
4. Add the heavy cream and bring the mix to a simmer, watch carefully as the cream can easily boil over and cause a big mess
5. Allow the cream mixture to reduce and thicken so that you can create a line when crossing your finger along the back of a wooden spoon
6. Add some salt and pepper
7. Once the pasta is cooked, remove the cream from the burner and stir in the cheese Add more salt and pepper to taste
8. Add the pasta and allow it to finish cooking in the sauce.
