Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
One 16-ounce container sliced bella mushrooms, broken into pieces
12 ounces bucatini
4 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmesan

Steps:

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the butter is melted and just starting to brown, about 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and crispy, about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to package directions.
Combine the eggs, 1 cup of the Parmesan and several grinds of black pepper in a large bowl and whisk until well combined.
Once the pasta is cooked, drain, reserving 1 cup pasta water. Add the pasta to the bowl and toss with tongs to coat. Add the mushrooms, half the pasta water and the remaining cheese, thinning with more water as needed so that the pasta is well coated.

Tips:

Use good quality pasta: Fresh or dried pasta will work for this recipe, but using a high-quality pasta will make a big difference in the final dish.
Don't overcook the pasta: Cook the pasta according to the package directions, but be careful not to overcook it. Al dente pasta is best for this dish.
Use a large skillet: A large skillet will help to ensure that the pasta and sauce are evenly cooked.
Don't crowd the skillet: When adding the pasta to the skillet, don't crowd it. If the skillet is too crowded, the pasta will not cook evenly.
Use a wooden spoon to stir the pasta: A wooden spoon will help to prevent the pasta from sticking to the skillet.
Add the cheese slowly: When adding the cheese to the pasta, add it slowly and stir constantly. This will help to prevent the cheese from clumping.
Serve immediately: Carbonara is best served immediately after it is made. The pasta will start to thicken as it sits, so it's best to enjoy it right away.

This 10-minute mushroom carbonara is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family.
