Ingredients
  

  • 400 - 500 grams fresh lobster mushrooms or dried
  • 750 - 800 grams fresh fettuccine
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup hard cheese like Parmesan
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 3 - 4 cloves garlic
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • ½ tablespoon fresh cracked black pepper
  • Salt to taste
  • Parsley for garnish optional

Instructions
 

  • Make sure your lobster mushrooms are clean, and not wormy and brittle before you even think about starting this recipe, as sometimes the outward appearance of a lobster mushroom can be deceiving. If you are using dried mushrooms, soak in milk or water in the fridge overnight.
  • Cut mushrooms into small ¼-1/2-inch pieces.
  • Peel and finely mince garlic.
  • Melt butter in frying pan on medium heat. Add mushrooms and garlic, stirring for 10 minutes or so until golden brown. Salt to taste. Add pepper.
  • Grate cheese and add to sautéed mushrooms.
  • Add cream and continue to stir mushroom sauce on low heat.
  • While mushrooms cook, boil water for pasta. Cook according to package directions.
  • Drain pasta and add to a large bowl. Toss with ¼ cup olive oil.
  • Toss with sauce either in the serving bowl or add sauce to plates.

Notes

  • Try any type of hearty mushrooms in a dish such as this.
