Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp butter
1 onion , finely chopped
250g button chestnut mushroom , sliced
1 garlic clove , finely grated
100ml dry white wine
200ml double cream
1 lemon , zest only
200g parmesan (or vegetarian alternative), grated, plus extra to serve
300g tagliatelle or linguini
½ small bunch parsley , finely chopped

Steps:

  • Heat the oil and butter in a medium saucepan. Fry the onion over a low heat for 10 mins or until softened and translucent.
  • Add the mushrooms and cook for 10 mins over a medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 2 mins. Add the wine and bring to a simmer, reduce the liquid by half.
  • Add the double cream and bring to a simmer, then add the lemon zest and parmesan. Season with salt and plenty of black pepper.
