CREAMY PASTA WITH MUSHROOMS, SPINACH, AND PEAS



Creamy Pasta With Mushrooms, Spinach, and Peas image

This is a quick dinner I made one night with what I had in the freezer and fridge regularly. We really enjoyed it. We didn't have any meat, but I will probably make it again with fish or chicken. This could be a gluten free meal by substituting gluten free pasta. I used corn spaghetti. It could also be made vegetarian by substituting vegetable stock.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Kosher salt
1/4 cup fresh shelled English peas
12 ounces fettuccine pasta
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for finishing
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1 shallot, finely diced
1 big pinch pepperoncini chile flakes
4 ounces maitake mushrooms, sliced
4 ounces oyster mushrooms, sliced
1/4 cup white wine
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 Fresno chile, finely diced
1/2 cup finely grated Pecorino Romano (fine like dust)
6 fresh basil leaves, cut into chiffonade

Steps:

  • Bring a small pot of water to a boil and salt generously. Prepare an ice bath. Blanch the peas in the boiling water until bright green, about 20 seconds. Transfer immediately to the ice bath. Once cool, drain completely.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season with salt until it tastes of lightly salted broth. Once boiling, add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente.
  • While the pasta is cooking, in a large sauté pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the garlic, shallot and pepperoncini and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the maitake and oyster mushrooms and cook until softened, another 3 to 4 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the white wine.
  • When the pasta is cooked to al dente, add the pasta to the pan with the mushrooms directly from the pot, reserving the pasta water. Allow the pasta to finish cooking in the mushroom sauce, about 1 minute. Add the peas, butter and Fresno chile and stir to coat. Turn off the heat and add the Pecorino Romano in handfuls, stirring in between additions to prevent lumps. Add pasta water to thin the sauce as desired. Finish with the basil and a drizzle of olive oil.

2 garlic cloves, crushed
200g low-fat crème fraîche
15g parmesan or vegetarian alternative, grated

Season with black pepper and finish with a sprinkle of chilli flakes, if you like.
