I like to use oat based cream with it and add a few slices of dried spanish ham on top. By avoiding the ham you can make the dish vegetarian.

Equipment

  • Pot
  • Pan
  • Small knife
  • Cutting board
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 250 grams Pasta
  • 200 grams Mushrooms Take the type you like most!
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil For frying the mushrooms
  • 1/4 liter Cream Can be from milk, oats or any other alternative
  • Salt and pepper Add to taste
  • 50 grams Dried ham (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Boil your water and add pasta according to the instructions on the package. I usually use pasta screws that need to cook for 12 minutes or fresh pasta that needs 4 minutes.
  • Wash the dirt off your mushrooms and cut the bottom of the stems off. Slice the mushrooms in thin slices, about 3-5mm thick. They will shrink when cooked.
  • Fry the mushrooms on a hot pan with olive oil. The water in the mushrooms will start to run out and evaporate.
    When the mushrooms have fried enough and maybe with a bit of color, you can add the cream and turn the temperature to medium heat.
  • Wait for the cream to boil and turn the stove down to a low temperature. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • When the water has finished boiling, drain the water out and add the pasta to the sauce.
  • Separate into two bowl and enjoy!
  • (Optional) Cut the dried ham into slices and add on top with some basil leaves.
