Recipe for Garlic Basil Cream Sauce ( mainly for use with pasta ) Key to this recipe is using low heat so always keep the heat low. Melt 1/3 stick of butter in sauce pan. Add 1 tablespoon of flour and mix well until mixture is bubbly keeping heat low. Add 8 oz Heavy Cream(or light - I prefer heavy) and stir. Add 3 cloves of crushed garlic. Add 3 tablespoons of ground basil, ( fresh basil if you have it ) Stir for 5-10 minutes on low heat.
