Penne – Creamy Mushroom

Ingredients:

250g of Penne (or any other pasta)

· 1 teaspoon salt

Sauce

· 2 cups of cremini mushrooms

· 4 oz (half a stick) of cream cheese

· ½ cup of ricotta

· 2 teaspoon salt

· 1 teaspoon black pepper

· Some fresh parsley (optionnal)

Directions:

Pasta:

1: In a large pot, bring water to boil, add salt. Add the fresh pasta for around 2-3 minutes (or until desired texture)

- I used dried Penne and the cooking time was 9 minutes.

2: In a large pan, add the sliced cremini mushrooms and a tsp of salt over medium heat. Cook until mushrooms are softened but not fully cooked.

3: In a mixer, add the mushrooms, cream cheese, ricotta, salt and pepper. Add 1/2 cup of pasta water.

4: When the pasta is cooked, add it to the pan. Mix gently until the sauce is wrapping the pasta. Let it cook for another 1-2 minutes. Place in the plate, add some fresh parsley and serve.

Serves 2-3.
