Ingredients

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 150g baby mushrooms, halved
• 150g tagliatelle
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• 200g low-fat crème fraîche
• 15g parmesan or vegetarian alternative, grated
• 120g baby spinach
• ½ tsp chilli flakes (optional)

Directions

Method

• STEP 1

  Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over a medium heat and fry the onion and mushrooms for 10 mins, or until softened and browned slightly. Meanwhile, cook the pasta following pack instructions.

• STEP 2

  Add the garlic to the pan with the mushrooms and cook for 2 mins more. Tip in the crème fraîche and parmesan, stir to combine, then add the baby spinach. Set aside.

• STEP 3

  Remove the pasta from the heat and drain, reserving 25ml of the water. Toss the pasta in the creamy mushroom sauce, put back on the heat and cook over a low heat until the spinach wilts, about 5 mins. Pour in enough of the reserved water to loosen slightly. Season with black pepper and finish with a sprinkle of chilli flakes, if you like.
