TONY STARK’S SEDUCTIVELY GOOD ARC REACTOR PASTA

1/2 pound fettuccine noodles 1 jar roasted red bell peppers, sliced into strips 1 1/2 cups whole milk 2 cloves garlic, minced 1/2 tsp white pepper 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese 2 tbsp butter 1/2 tsp salt 1/4 cup flour round slice of mozzarella cheese (optional)

Sometimes you have to follow the rules, so cook the pasta according to package directions.Other times, you have to follow your own path, like making your own Alfredo sauce from scratch. Start by melting your butter in a saucepan over a medium heat.When the butter is completely melted, whisk in the flour. Beat it like an alien invader until it’s as smooth as you are.Pour the milk into the battle. Whisk it until all lumps are defeated. Add the white pepper, salt, garlic, and Parmesan cheese. Put the pan back on a medium heat, because everyone sweats a little when you walk in the room.

Keep stirring the mix until everything melts like a woman succumbing to your charms. When the sauce is as thick and eager as you like, let it cool down for a few minutes. It never pays to look easy.

When you’re ready to take this sauce to the next level, first set the scene. Twirl the cooked pasta into a neat circle in the middle of your plate.

Pour a quarter cup of Alfredo sauce over the pasta until it glows as whitely as your Arc Reactor. If it’s not white enough, cut a circle of mozzarella cheese and lay it on top of the pasta.

Arrange a neat circle of roasted red bell pepper strips around the mound of pasta.

Admire your creativity before opening a bottle of Pinot Noir to share.

This is best served after a press conference, product unveiling, or the defeat of anyone stupid enough to attack New York City. Enjoy it with supermodels, personal assistants, or fellow superheroes.
