Steps:
- Heat a saucepan over medium heat. Add the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter and cook until foaming. Add the onions, season with a little salt and saute about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more. Next, add the mushrooms and some salt and pepper and cook until the mushrooms have released all their liquid, about 5 minutes more. Add the peas and cook until heated through, another 2 minutes. Keep warm.
- Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil and salt generously. Cook the cavatelli pasta to al dente, 4 to 5 minutes for fresh, or according to the package instructions. Set a strainer over a large heatproof measuring cup in the sink and carefully drain the pasta, reserving 2 cups of pasta water.
- Heat a large saute pan over medium heat and add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter. When melted, add the Pecorino Romano and 1 cup pasta water, whisking vigorously. Whisk in the cream. Add the pasta and toss to coat. Season with salt and add additional pasta water if the sauce is too thick. Stir in the mushroom mixture.
- Serve immediately, garnishing with additional freshly ground black pepper and freshly grated cheese.
- Combine the 00 and semolina flours with the salt in a food processor fitted with a metal blade; pulse a couple times. Add the olive oil and 1 cup room-temperature water to the flour mixture and pulse a few more times. Mix until a shaggy mass forms, then turn out onto a clean surface. Knead vigorously until the dough is smooth, elastic and bounces back when pressed, about 10 minutes.
- Cut the dough in half and work with one piece at a time (cover the other piece with a clean, damp kitchen towel). Using a bench scraper or knife, cut a walnut-sized piece of dough and roll it into a thin rope about 1/3 inch in diameter. Using the 4 fingers of your hand (no thumb), roll the rope of dough back and forth until it is a long, slender, tube-like shape (but not enclosed like a tube). Halve the pieces of pasta. Set aside on a clean towel sprinkled with semolina flour. Repeat with the remaining dough. Rest the pasta for 30 minutes.
- To cook, generously salt a large pot of boiling water. Add the cavatelli and cook until al dente, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain and use with your sauce recipe of choice.

This recipe just caught my eye while I was reading Cooking Light, Sept/07, issue. Have taken the liberty of adding some toasted almonds and crushed red pepper flakes to an otherwise wonderful recipe. It was awesome! UPDATE: Made this again & had no almonds but did have cashews, so I used them and they were even better! 09/15/07

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. Whenever possible, choose vegetables that are in season and mushrooms that are firm and meaty.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the mushrooms. This will prevent them from releasing their liquid and becoming soggy.
- Cook the mushrooms until they are browned and tender. This will bring out their umami flavor and make them more flavorful.
- Add the broccoli and cook it until it is tender but still has a slight crunch. Overcooked broccoli will become mushy and lose its flavor.
- Use a good quality olive oil for the best flavor. Extra virgin olive oil is a great choice, but you can also use a lighter olive oil if you prefer.
- Season the dish with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other spices or herbs, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or dried oregano.
- Serve the dish immediately, while the pasta is still hot. You can also top it with grated Parmesan cheese or crumbled bacon.
Conclusion:
Cavatelli with mushrooms and broccoli is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The pasta is cooked in a flavorful sauce made with mushrooms, broccoli, and garlic, and it is then topped with Parmesan cheese. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
