Butter
The base of richness! Our sauce begins by melting down butter and brings forth velvety smoothness like no other ingredient can offer.
Garlic
The show stopper since garlic is one of the main ingredients in this recipe, I highly recommend using freshly crushed garlic cloves for the best taste. Chopped garlic is highly aromatic and flavorful so adding it to the sauce enhances its taste more intensively.
All-purpose flour
It acts as a thickening agent and enables us to achieve the desired consistency without compromising the taste.
Vegetable stock
Add a little splash into the mix, giving nice savory undertones balancing out richness from other components.
Heavy cream
Heavy cream makes the sauce smooth and creamy. This dreamy creamy component contributes greatly towards making every mouthful heavenly indeed!
Italian seasoning
A mixture comprising mainly oregano, basil, and thyme so others provide some Mediterranean twist thereby making our already fabulous sauce even more aromatic.
Chilli flakes
For those who love heat; chili flakes not only add mild spiciness but also bring out complex flavors within the dish thus keeping one’s taste buds entertained throughout!
Parmesan cheese
Finally, what would a sauce be without parmesan cheese? It gives off that nutty characteristic coupled with saltiness hence taking it from ordinary to extraordinary levels leaving behind tingling sensations in your mouth.
When combined, these ingredients offer us a sauce that is both creamy and packed full of flavor. Whether you decide to drizzle it over pasta, spoon it onto roasted vegetables, or use it as a dip – one thing is for sure, this Parmesan Sauce will become your go-to recipe.

Hello Toma, This recipe was delicious! Normally I would not try a recipe without any reviews but I had a feeling after reading the ingredient list. The only substitution I made was using whole milk instead of cream. I paired the sauce with roasted chicken thighs and baby potatoes, my family loved it! Thank you again.
