Spaghetti al fungi

Spaghetti al fungi

Simple, tasty and ready in minutes this dish can be thrown together in minutes and with a reasonably stocked food cupboard is a walk in the park. I chose not to add truffles as I was eating at lunch time and I find the flavours to strong however, would certainly add them if I was cooking this as an evening meal or at the weekend.

Ingredients

- Spaghetti (you know how much you eat), cook as per packet

- 2 tablespoons olive oil

- 2 garlic cloves, crushed

- 1 cups quartered portabella mushrooms

- 12g dried porcini mushroom, rehydrate as per packet

- 2 ounces heavy cream

- 1 tablespoon truffle paste

- Salt and pepper

- Parmesan, grated

Method

Cooking time: 20 minutes | Serves: 1

Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Do not rinse pasta with cold water.

In a large skillet (frying pan), heat the olive oil, and add the crushed garlic. Heat the garlic in the oil for a few seconds to infuse the flavour of the garlic in the oil. Remove the garlic, and set aside.

Add the porcini & portabella mushrooms to the skillet, and cook for approximately 5 minutes, or until tender. Add the heavy cream, truffle paste (optional), pepper, and cook for 2 minutes. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and mix all ingredients together.

To serve, plate pasta, and sprinkle with grated Parmesan.
