Vegetarian Pasta RecipesVegetarian Pasta Recipes - 6An Italian restaurateur Alfredo di Lelio invented fettucini pasta, for the waning appetite of his pregnant wife. Once she began eating, he added the dish in his restaurant menu. The restaurant became famous, when Hollywood stars Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks visited the restaurant in 1920's. They simply loved the dish and carried the recipe back home. Though Lelio named the dish after him. But the dish is popular as fettuccine al burro e panna, which is, fettuccine pasta mixed with cheese, butter and heavy cream. The creamy Alfredo sauce had its origin here.
