Ingredients
Scale
300 grams of spaghetti (or pasta of your choice)
2 tablespoons of olive oil
3 cloves of garlic, minced
250 grams of mushrooms, sliced
1 cup of heavy cream
½ cup of parmesan cheese, grated
¼ cup of fresh parsley, chopped
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
Cook the Pasta: Start by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add your spaghetti (or pasta of choice) and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Make sure to reserve about a cup of pasta water before draining.
Sauté the Aromatics: In a large pan over medium heat, drizzle the olive oil. When it’s warm and shimmering, toss in the minced garlic and sauté for just a minute until fragrant. Avoid burning the garlic.
Add the Mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan, sprinkle a little salt, and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until beautifully browned and tender.
Create the Creamy Sauce: Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine. Let it simmer gently for 2-3 minutes until thickened slightly. If too thick, add reserved pasta water.
Mix It All Together: Add the drained pasta into the sauce and toss to combine. If too dry, splash in some pasta water as needed.
Finishing Touch: Remove from heat and stir in the grated parmesan and chopped parsley. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, serve immediately.
