GARLIC MUSHROOM PASTA



Garlic Mushroom Pasta image

My mom used to make this for me as a kid. It is easy to whip up and can be modified. Change the veggies, add some bacon, use less garlic, whatever. Sometimes I've used one egg and stirred in some margarine (or butter or olive oil) but I like it best like this. This is sized as smaller servings, almost as a side dish size.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Pasta     Spaghetti Recipes

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil
½ large onion, diced
5 large mushrooms, sliced
8 cloves garlic, crushed
1 teaspoon olive oil, or as needed
1 (12 ounce) package spaghetti
2 eggs, beaten
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion, mushrooms, and garlic in hot oil until onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; add about 1 teaspoon olive oil to keep spaghetti from sticking. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain and transfer hot spaghetti back to pot.
  • Stir eggs into spaghetti; allow heat from spaghetti to cook the eggs. Stir onion and mushroom mixture and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese into spaghetti over low heat until eggs are fully cooked and cheese is melted. Garnish with additional Parmesan cheese.

CREAMY ONE-POT MUSHROOM AND LEEK PASTA



Creamy One-Pot Mushroom and Leek Pasta image

This deeply satisfying pasta, brimming with rich umami, is made in just one pot, an approach that bolsters its flavors. Once the leek and mushrooms are caramelized and sticking to the pot, they're deglazed to lift all the extra depth from the bottom of the pan. (Use any liquid for deglazing, whether water, wine, stock, vinegar or tomato juice.) This recipe leaves the choice of mushrooms up to you: Cremini and shiitake are a good combination, but you could even use rehydrated porcinis. If you are craving greens to cut through the richness, stir a few handfuls of baby spinach into the pasta just before you turn off the heat.

Provided by Hetty McKinnon

Categories     dinner, one pot, pastas, vegetables, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 leek, white part only, finely sliced (about 5 ounces)
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
3 cups mixed mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake or oyster, torn or sliced (about 6 ounces)
1 lemon, halved
1 pound short pasta, such as orecchiette, cavatappi, gemelli or penne
4 cups vegetable stock
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley, plus more for garnish
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 cup whole-milk ricotta
1/2 to 1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Heat a wide, deep 12-inch skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high. When hot, add the olive oil and leeks, reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring constantly, until softened and lightly golden, 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the garlic and mushrooms. Cook, undisturbed, for 2 minutes, then stir and cook, undisturbed, until the mushrooms start to caramelize and stick to the bottom of the pan, another 2 to 3 minutes. (This allows the water from the mushrooms to evaporate, encouraging caramelization.) Add the juice of one lemon half to deglaze the pan and stir to combine.
  • Add the pasta and stock; stir well. Cover with lid and cook on medium heat. Begin tasting pasta 10 minutes after you add it. (All pasta shapes and brands will have different cooking times. You want the pasta to be just tender.)
  • Once the pasta is cooked, turn off the heat and add the butter and parsley. Squeeze in the juice from the remaining lemon half and stir until butter is melted and dispersed. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To serve, top with ricotta, red-pepper flakes (to taste) and more chopped parsley.

MUSHROOM PASTA STIR-FRY



Mushroom Pasta Stir-Fry image

While stir-fries have long gone hand-in-hand with rice, this recipe shows the versatility of the dish. Here, a quick stir-fry is transformed into a flavorful, unconventional pasta sauce. Five spice is a Chinese seasoning that is said to incorporate all five tastes: sweet, sour, bitter, salty and umami. In this recipe, its blend of star anise, cloves, Chinese cinnamon, Sichuan peppercorns and fennel intensifies the robust flavor of the mushrooms. Don't overcook the broccolini; it should be crisp, with a bright green vibrancy. You could easily substitute broccoli, green beans, snow peas or other crunchy greens. And don't skip the butter (or use vegan butter, if you prefer), as it provides a beautiful richness which brings the sauce and ingredients together.

Provided by Hetty McKinnon

Categories     dinner, weekday, pastas, vegetables, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Kosher salt and black pepper
1 pound spaghetti or other long pasta
4 tablespoons neutral oil, such as grapeseed
1 pound mushrooms (any small variety), trimmed and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
2 garlic cloves, grated
1 1/4 teaspoons five-spice blend
3/4 pound broccolini, trimmed and cut into 3-inch pieces, thick stems halved lengthwise
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 scallions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons oyster sauce (or vegetarian mushroom oyster sauce)
2 tablespoons maple syrup or brown sugar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon chile oil or chile crisp

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package instructions, until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large (12-inch), deep skillet over medium-high. When hot, add 2 tablespoons oil and the mushrooms. Cook for 7 to 8 minutes, giving it a stir every 2 minutes or so. The mushrooms will release lots of liquid, but it will evaporate as it cooks. When the mushrooms start to turn golden, add the garlic, five spice and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and black pepper, then cook for 1 minute. Transfer the mushrooms to a plate and set aside.
  • While the mushrooms are cooking, make the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk the oyster sauce, maple syrup, soy sauce, sesame oil and chile oil with 1/4 cup water until combined. Set aside.
  • Heat the same skillet back over medium-high. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and the broccolini. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, tossing occasionally, until the broccolini is tender but still quite crisp.
  • Add the pasta to the pan, along with the sauce and the butter. Using tongs, toss to combine, then add the reserved pasta cooking water, 1/4 cup at a time, just to loosen the sauce. When the butter has melted, add the mushrooms and toss again. Remove from the heat. Serve topped with scallions.

MUSHROOM RAGù PASTA



Mushroom Ragù Pasta image

Rich and earthy, this creamy pasta feels appropriate for date night, but comes together quickly enough for a weeknight. The process is simple, but the details do matter here: Use a thin pasta, like spaghettini or angel hair, so that it cooks in the same amount of time it takes the stock and cream to reduce to a sauce. Also pay close attention during the last few minutes of cooking the pasta to ensure you're stirring enough and adding enough water to create a silky sauce. Porcini mushroom powder, which is optional, adds depth, and can be made at home by pulverizing store-bought dried mushrooms in a spice grinder (see Tip). Offset the richness of the dish with a classic green salad, shaved fennel, or some mustardy bitter greens.

Provided by Alexa Weibel

Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 cups chicken or vegetable stock
1 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons dried porcini mushroom powder, optional (see Tip)
4 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt
1/3 cup olive oil
1 1/2 pounds mixed fresh mushrooms, such as shiitake and cremini, finely chopped into 1/4-inch pieces
3 shallots, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Black pepper
1/3 cup port or marsala wine
1 pound spaghettini or angel hair pasta

Steps:

  • Add the stock, heavy cream, porcini mushroom powder (if using), 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves and 2 teaspoons salt to a large pot. Bring to a boil over high.
  • While the liquid comes to a boil, heat the oil over medium-high in a large (12-inch) nonstick skillet. Add the mushrooms, shallots, garlic and 2 teaspoons thyme leaves. Season generously with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized and tender, about 12 minutes. Add the port, and stir until the alcohol cooks off and the mixture is almost dry, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, set aside and cover to keep warm.
  • Add the pasta to the boiling cream mixture, reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently with tongs, until the pasta is al dente and absorbs most of the liquid, and the sauce is silky, 6 to 7 minutes. (Stir constantly during the last couple minutes to ensure the pasta cooks evenly. Add a splash of water if needed to keep the mixture glossy.) Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer the pasta to bowls, top with the mushroom mixture and the remaining 1 teaspoon thyme leaves, and serve immediately.

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 ounce dried porcini mushrooms
2 cups hot water
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter
1 3/4 cups finely chopped onions
8 ounces fresh button mushrooms, chopped
6 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms, stemmed, sliced
2 1/2 tablespoons all purpose flour
2 1/2 cups whole milk
3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh chives
12 ounces penne pasta
1/2 cup fresh breadcrumbs made from French bread

Steps:

  • Place porcini in small bowl. Add 2 cups hot water and let soften 20 minutes. Using slotted spoon, remove porcini. Reserve liquid. Coarsely chop porcini.
  • Melt 3 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Add button and shiitake mushrooms and sauté 5 minutes. Mix in porcini and reserved soaking liquid, leaving any sediment behind in bowl. Simmer over medium-high heat 10 minutes.
  • Melt remaining 3 tablespoons butter in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and stir constantly until golden, about 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in milk. Stir until sauce thickens and boils, about 3 minutes. Stir into mushroom mixture. Simmer 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and chives. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside. (Sauce can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over medium-low heat before continuing.)
  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Butter 13 x 9 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite. Drain well. Return to pot. Add mushroom sauce and toss well to coat. Transfer to prepared baking dish. Sprinkle breadcrumbs and remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan over. Bake casserole until heated through and light golden, about 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use flavorful mushrooms. Cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms all have a robust flavor that will stand up to the other ingredients in the dish.
  • Cook the mushrooms properly. Mushrooms should be cooked until they are tender but still have a little bit of bite to them. Overcooking will make them rubbery.
  • Use a good quality pasta. Pasta that is made with durum wheat will hold its shape better and have a better flavor than pasta made with other types of wheat.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the pasta, make sure to use a large enough pot so that the pasta has plenty of room to move around. Overcrowding the pan will prevent the pasta from cooking evenly.
  • Season the pasta water. Adding salt to the pasta water will help to flavor the pasta. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder or dried herbs, to the water.
  • Don't rinse the pasta. Rinsing the pasta after it has been cooked will remove the starch that helps the sauce to stick to the pasta. If you must rinse the pasta, be sure to do so with cold water.
  • Use a flavorful sauce. The sauce is what really makes this dish special. There are many different types of sauces that you can use, so choose one that you like. Some popular options include a simple tomato sauce, a creamy Alfredo sauce, or a pesto sauce.
  • Garnish the pasta with fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as basil, parsley, or thyme, will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.

With its combination of tender mushrooms, flavorful sauce, and al dente pasta, this mushroom pasta dish is a surefire hit.
