Mushroom Pasta
June 28, 2008 mains, vegetarian
Mum gets really annoyed when she learns that there is yet another vegetable that I wouldn’t eat as a kid that I’ve started to love as an adult. It took me till 31 to get my head around the mushroom.
Tonight’s dinner guest is Annie who is finishing off her PHD and is suffering an affliction of mushie brain – its as though her brian is on hyperdrive and no longer capable of simplicity. It’s cute.
Serves: 2
Time: 20 min
Ingredients:
200g or ½ packet of Fettuccini egg noodles
200g of button mushrooms sliced
30g of butter
1 garlic clove chopped finely
1 lemon juiced
6 or so large sage leaves thinly sliced
1. Get a pot of boiling water on the stove first and cook the pasta to the packet instructions
2. Cook the mushrooms in a pan with the knob of butter on a med-low heat until they begin to soften, add the garlic and cook for a few more minutes until you can smell the fragrant garlic
3. Stir in the lemon juice and sage
4. Drain the pasta and combine with the mushrooms
5. Serve

Really Melissa I am utterly in the dark as to how you received the impression that I am using somewhat more prolix than usual or indeed that I may be subject to some kind of affliction whereby I am not as able as I usually am to construct a simple, elegant, expressive sentence; or perhaps to speak plainly, to put it another way.
What were we talking about again?
Fucken awesome dinner btw.
Fantastic post!!! Cheers!
Thanks for the review!
