Creamy White Wine Pasta Sauce

A creamy dreamy, and somewhat decadent White Wine sauce with butter and garlic that you can whip up in just 15 minutes.

📝 Ingredients

• 14 oz dry pasta ((Note 1))
• 2 tbsp butter
• 4 cloves garlic (crushed)
• 1/2 cup white wine ((Note 2))
• 3/4 cup heavy cream (double cream) ((Note 3))
• 2 tbsp Parmesan cheese (finely grated)
• 1.5 tsp balsamic vinegar (optional)
• 3 tbsp fresh dill (finely chopped)
• 3 tbsp parsley (finely chopped)
• salt (to taste normally 1/4 tsp)
• 1/2 tsp black pepper

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Cook the pasta according to the instructions on the package in generously salted water until al dente. Ensure you reserve a few tablespoons of the pasta water before draining it. (Note 4)
2. 2Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add the butter.
3. 3Add the crushed garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4. 4Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until it has reduced by half.
5. 5Add the cream, balsamic vinegar, dill, parsley, salt, and black pepper to the saucepan and simmer for a few minutes.
6. 6Reduce the heat, stir in the Parmesan, parsley and dill.
7. 7Remove the pan from the heat once the Parmesan has melted. The sauce is likely to be quite thick at this point. Add a couple of tablespoons of the reserved pasta water until it reaches the right consistency.
8. 8Toss the cooked pasta in the sauce until evenly coated.
9. 9Serve immediately, topped with extra parsley and black pepper as desired.
