Ingredients

  • 150g dried trofie or fusilli
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 250g mixed mushrooms

Preparation

1. Cook the pasta in a pan of boiling salted water according to the packet instructions, then drain, reserving a mugful of cooking water.

3. Season with sea salt and black pepper, and cook for 8 minutes, or until golden, tossing regularly.

4. Toss the drained pasta into the mushroom pan with a splash of the reserved cooking water.

5. Finely grate in most of the Parmesan, stir in the crème fraîche, taste, season to perfection, and dish up, finishing with a final grating of Parmesan.
