Creamy Mushroom Penne
Serves: 4
Ready in: Under 15 Mins
Ingredients:
350g penne1 tbsp olive oil
250g brown closed cup mushrooms, sliced
1 garlic clove, peeled and crushed
150ml vegetarian dry white wine
200ml pot half fat crème fraîche
1/2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
3 tbsp vegetarian Parmesan-style cheese
2 tbsp chopped fresh flat parsley
method:
- Bring a large pan of boiling water to the boil. Add the penne and cook for 10 minutes (or according to packet instructions) until just tender.
- While the pasta cooks, make the sauce: Heat the oil in a large frying pan, and when hot add the mushrooms. Sauté for five minutes over a high heat until golden brown. Add the garlic and cook for one minute, stirring.
- Add the white wine and cook briskly until nearly all the wine has evaporated. Pour in the crème fraîche then gently reheat until the sauce is smooth. Stir in the nutmeg and season to taste. Remove from the heat.
- Drain the penne in a colander then return to the pan. Stir in the mushroom sauce and the cheese. Divide between plates then scatter over the parsley. Serve with more Parmesan-style cheese sprinkled on top, if liked.
