Author Notes
I love mushrooms combined with a traditional alfredo sauce - it makes for a much earthier dish. —Erin Jeanne McDowell
Ingredients
-
1
pound fettucine (I used whole wheat) (454 g)
-
3 tablespoons
butter (42 g)
-
1/2
onion, minced (110 g)
-
2
cups mushrooms, thinly sliced (150 g)
-
3
cloves garlic, minced (15 g)
-
generous splash of white wine
-
1
cup heavy cream (235 g)
-
1
cup grated Parmesan (112 g)
-
1
cup peas (150 g)
-
salt and lots of fresh ground pepper, to taste
-
fresh chopped parsley, to taste
Directions
-
Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water until tender, about 7-9 minutes. Drain and reserve.
-
In a large saute pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and mushrooms and saute until tender, about 4-5 minutes.
-
Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the wine and reduce completely, about 2 minutes.
-
Add the cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in the Parmesan and peas. Season the sauce with salt and pepper.
-
Add the cooked pasta and toss to coat. Garnish with parsley and more cheese, if you like.
I always have three kinds of hot sauce in my purse. I have a soft spot for making people their favorite dessert, especially if it's wrapped in a pastry crust. My newest cookbook, Savory Baking, came out in Fall of 2022 - is full of recipes to translate a love of baking into recipes for breakfast, dinner, and everything in between!
