Description

A creamy and flavorful pasta dish made with mushrooms and Marsala wine, perfect for a comforting meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 250 g (½ lb) pasta
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium shallot
  • 250 g (½ lb) mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, minced
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 100 ml (½ cup) Marsala
  • 1 teaspoon wholegrain mustard
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 200 ml (1 cup) vegetable stock
  • 150 ml (¾ cup) double cream
  • 2 teaspoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Boil the pasta in salted water according to the instructions on the package and reserve some pasta water before draining.
  2. In a large pan, heat the olive oil and fry the shallot for 1 minute over medium heat until it softens.
  3. Next, add the mushrooms and rosemary to the pan and fry them for 8 to 10 minutes until they reduce in size and are slightly golden. Add the flour and stir to cover the mushrooms.
  4. Pour the Marsala and continue to cook for one to two minutes until the alcohol evaporates and you’re left with a creamy sauce.
  5. Add the garlic and wholegrain mustard to the pan and stir to incorporate. Cook for another minute, then add the stock. Allow it to bubble for a minute, then add the double cream and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens.
  6. Stir in the fresh parsley, then transfer the pasta to the pan. Give it a good stir until it’s well covered in sauce and season to taste.

Notes

  • Feel free to adjust the seasoning as per your taste.
  • Leftover sauce can be used as a base for a soup or another pasta dish.
