Ingredients

  • 250 grams Gluten-free pasta
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons Gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups Milk
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the gluten-free pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, but not browned.

Step 4

Sprinkle the gluten-free all-purpose flour over the garlic and butter, stirring constantly with a whisk to form a roux. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the mixture is light golden.

Step 5

Slowly pour in the milk while continuing to whisk. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it thicken, stirring frequently, for about 5-7 minutes.

Step 6

Once the sauce has thickened, reduce the heat to low and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Continue to stir until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is smooth.

Step 7

Season the sauce with salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 8

Combine the cooked gluten-free pasta with the creamy white sauce in the saucepan, tossing to coat the pasta evenly.

Step 9

Serve the pasta hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
