Prep 12 min Cook 5 min Serves 2 Easy

Ingredients

  • Saltto taste
  • Garlic3 cloves, minced
  • Tomato Sauce2 tbsp
  • Olive Oil2 tbsp
  • Parmesan Cheese60 g, grated
  • Spaghetti320 g
  • Mushrooms400 g, sliced
  • Spring Onions3, sliced
  • Noodles250 g

Optional extras

  • Fresh Basilhandful, to finish

Instructions

  1. 1

    Get the pasta water salty and rolling before the Mushrooms goes in — crowded noodles in weak water is the one unforgivable sin.

  2. 2

    In a wide pan, warm the oil and let Noodles turn translucent and sweet without taking any colour.

  3. 3

    Stir through Garlic, toasting it briefly, then lower the heat to a murmur.

  4. 4

    Lift the Mushrooms out a minute early, straight into the pan, bringing its starchy water along for the ride.

  5. 5

    Emulsify: shake and toss the pan hard so water, oil and starch combine into a sauce that looks almost creamy.

  6. 6

    Taste, adjust salt, and serve immediately with cheese passed at the table.

Chef's tip

Taste and adjust the salt at the end; sauces concentrate as they reduce.
