Creamy Mushroom Spaghetti

Step 1

Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling water until quite al dente (it will finish cooking in the sauce).

Step 2

While the pasta is cooking, melt the butter in a large frying pan on medium heat.

Step 3

Add the shallots and cook until transparent (about 3-4 minutes). Add the mushrooms and cook for another minute.

Step 4

Add the garlic and cook another minute. Stir in the cream and parsley, lower the heat and simmer gently until thickened (1-2 minutes).

Step 5

Drain the pasta and reserve some of the pasta water.

Step 6

Add the pasta to the sauce and toss to coat, adding the reserved water as needed to loosen the sauce.

Step 7

Serve immediately with grated cheese.
