Creamy Garlic Sauce

Prep Time: 10 mins

Cook Time: 10 mins

Makes: 1 ½ cups of sauce

Ingredients

  • 4-5 fresh Australian Garlic cloves, minced (or 2 teaspoons Australian Garlic paste)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (optional for thickening)
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

  1. Sauté the garlic:
    In a medium skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, sautéing for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
  2. Make a roux (optional):
    If you prefer a thicker sauce, whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. This creates a roux that will help thicken your sauce.
  3. Add cream and butter:
    Slowly stir in the heavy cream and add the butter. Let it melt completely while stirring gently. Continue cooking for 3-4 minutes, allowing the sauce to come to a low simmer.
  4. Incorporate Parmesan:
    Stir in the Parmesan cheese gradually, whisking until fully melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  5. Season and finish:
    Add salt and pepper to taste. Let the sauce simmer for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
  6. Garnish and serve:
    Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Serve immediately with your favorite pasta, as a dip for bread, or drizzled over grilled vegetables or meats.

Tips for the Best Sauce

  • Garlic flavor: For a stronger garlic punch, increase the amount of Australian Garlic or fresh Australian Garlic cloves.
  • Consistency: If the sauce is too thick, stir in a little more cream or milk until it reaches your desired consistency.
  • Storage: Store leftover sauce in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge. Reheat gently over low heat.

This creamy garlic sauce is perfect for anyone who loves bold, garlicky flavors in a rich and velvety sauce. Made with Australian Garlic, it's a must-try for garlic enthusiasts!
