Simple fried mushroom spaghetti

A fast and easy dish, great for lunch, takes about 10-15 minutes, basically as long as it takes you to boil the water and cook the spaghetti, the rest of the prep can be done while the pasta is cooking.

Ingredients

  • 100g fancy mushrooms. I buy these from Sainsburys (makes two servings)
  • 4 or 5 regular button mushrooms
  • 1 clove garlic
  • Salt
  • 85g (0.19lb) Spaghetti
  • Olive oil
  • Parmesan cheese

Method

  1. Put on a pan of water, salt and bring to a rolling boil.
  2. Drop the pasta in.
  3. Chop the mushrooms into bite-size pieces (not too small, they shrink when cooked).
  4. Heat the oil in a small frying pan, when hot throw in the mushrooms.
  5. Finely chop or grate the clove of garlic, stir into the mushrooms.
  6. Salt to taste.
  7. Stir the mushrooms regularly.
  8. Drain the pasta when al dente, stir into the mushrooms.
  9. Serve in a warmed plate or bowl, grate parmesan over to taste.
