Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the butter is melted and just starting to brown, about 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and crispy, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to package directions.
- Combine the eggs, 1 cup of the Parmesan and several grinds of black pepper in a large bowl and whisk until well combined.
- Once the pasta is cooked, drain, reserving 1 cup pasta water. Add the pasta to the bowl and toss with tongs to coat. Add the mushrooms, half the pasta water and the remaining cheese, thinning with more water as needed so that the pasta is well coated.
