* To clean mushrooms: use a damp cloth or paper towel to gently brush any dirt off the mushroomstrim up to 1/4 from the bottom of any stems that appear discoloured, soggy, or not completely fresh, if you must rinse quickly with cold water never warm or hot.
**Fettuccine can be dried or a fresh egg pasta.
EXTRAS
  • ¼ cup freshly grated parmigiano or pecorino Romano

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large saucepan add olive oil, mushrooms, salt, garlic, chopped Italian parsley, hot pepper flakes and water. Cook on medium heat for approximately 20-25 minutes, until mushrooms are tender and water has evaporated. 
  2. While mushrooms are cooking cook the fettuccine in boiling salted water until al dente, drain then add to the cooked mushrooms along with half a ladle of pasta water. Cook on medium heat while tossing until water has evaporated and becomes almost creamy. Serve immediately. Top with freshly grated parmesan or pecorino cheese if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

  • How Much Pasta To Use?
  • Rule of thumb is 2 ounces / 57 grams of dry pasta per person. Although you could increase to 2 1/2 ounces / 75 grams. This will yield approximately 1 1/4 – 1 3/4 cups cooked.
  • This pasta dish is best served immediately but can be stored in an airtight container  in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. I like to save a little pasta water to use when reheating the leftovers.
