Equipment

  • large skillet
  • Pot for boiling pasta

Ingredients
  

  • 160 g fettuccine or linguine Use dried, not fresh pasta
  • 30 g unsalted butter
  • ½ tablespoon olive oil
  • 300 g mushrooms, sliced white, cremini/swiss brown
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 125 ml white wine, dry or rose, substitute with more broth
  • 125 ml chicken broth/stock low sodium or vegetable broth
  • 185 ml cream, heavy or thickened
  • 30 g parmesan, finely grated Do not use store bought sandy parmesan
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper

Serving

  • extra parmesan for serving
  • parsley roughly chopped (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Cook pasta in salted water for 1 minute less than time per packet. Scoop out 1 cup cooking water before draining, then drain.
  • Melt butter and heat oil in a large skillet over high heat.
  • Add mushrooms and cook, stirring regularly. When they start to sweat, add a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • When golden (about 4 - 5 minutes), add garlic and cook until garlic is golden and mushrooms are golden.
  • Add wine, stir, scraping the bottom of the skillet. Simmer until wine is mostly evaporated.
  • Add broth, cream, parmesan, salt, and pepper. Stir to dissolve parmesan and simmer for 2 minutes.
  • Transfer pasta into sauce, toss for 1 - 2 minutes until sauce thickens. Add reserved pasta cooking water if needed.
  • Garnish with parsley and serve immediately with extra parmesan.

Notes

Pasta works best with flat wide shapes. Leftovers keep better than most creamy pastas, refrigerate for up to 3 days.
