Total Time: 35 minutes
Ingredients
1.5 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
1/2 Tablespoon Olive Oil
170g Mixed Mushrooms Sliced
2 Cloves Garlic Minced
3 Cups Baby Spinach
Salt
Black Pepper
1/4 Cup White Wine
3/4 Cup Vegetable Broth
1/2 Tablespoon Flour Mixed With 1/2 Tablespoon Water (Slurry)
1/4 Teaspoon Dried Crushed Chillies
125g Dried Pappardelle Pasta
2 Tablespoons Double Cream
1/4 Cup Parmesan Cheese Finely Grated
1 Tablespoon Chopped Basil
2 Tablespoons Pine Nuts Lightly Toasted
Freshly Sliced Burrata (To Serve)
Directions
Add 1/2 tablespoon of butter and olive oil to a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook until caramelized and brown, about 5–6 minutes. Add garlic and spinach. Sprinkle with a generous amount of salt and pepper. Cook until spinach has wilted, about 3–4 minutes.
Add remaining butter and stir until melted. Pour in white wine and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil and stir in the slurry. Reduce heat to a simmer and sprinkle in dried crushed chillies. Cook until thickened and reduced, about 10 minutes.
While sauce is reducing, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add pappardelle pasta and cook until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Add heavy cream and 2 tablespoons of parmesan to sauce and cook for an additional 2 minutes or until cheese has melted. Then, add pappardelle pasta to pan with sauce and toss to combine.
Top pasta with remaining Parmesan cheese, basil, pine nuts and fresh burrata. Serve immediately and enjoy.
