  • Extra virgin olive oil EVOO
  • 500 grams Fresh tagliatelle pasta
  • 1 glass White wine

Instructions

  • To make the mushroom pasta, first boil the water on the stove in a large pot.
  • Pour 5-6 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil into a pan and warm up on a medium heat.
  • Add 200g of sausuage mince and break into smaller pieces using a fork or wooden spoon, spreading it out to cook well on your pan.
  • Leave to simmer for around 10 minutes or until cooked through.
  • Add the key ingredients – porcini and wild mushrooms – and cook for another 7-8 minutes.
  • Once this has cooked well and you have the DIVINE smell sifting through your kitchen, add a glass of white wine and leave to evaporate for at least another 5 minutes.
  • Add a sprinkle of salt to the mushroom pasta and mix through well using a fork or tongs.
  • Turn the mixture down to a low heat while you cook your pasta.
  • By now, the water should be boiling in your large pot. Add the fresh pasta and leave to cook according to the packet instructions.
  • Once cooked, strain the pasta and add it to the fry pan. Sprinkle some freshly grated parmesan cheese on top (be generous), and mix through. Repeat if you love a little extra cheese…!
  • E ora si mangia, Vincenzo’s Plate….Enjoy!
