Serves
2
Ingredients
- 400g mafaldine, linguine or tagliatelle
- 70g Parmesan
- 20g butter
- 2 tbsp of truffle oil
- 1/2 shallot
20g black truffle
- 200g button mushrooms
- 30ml white wine
- 80g mascarpone
Method
FOR THE TRUFFLE CREAM
Melt the butter with the truffle oil in a frying pan. Add the shallot and half of the finely chopped truffle, then the minced or chopped mushrooms. Let it brown for a few minutes, then deglaze with white wine, stirring well with a wooden spoon. Let it simmer on a low heat for 10 minutes, and then stir.
FOR THE PASTA
In another saucepan, cook your pasta in boiling salted water, until it’s a little less than al dente. Mix the mascarpone with the truffle cream in another saucepan and heat gently. Add the pasta, grated Parmesan and a little bit of cooking water, if necessary. Serve immediately, garnishing with fine slithers of the remaining truffle (you can use a peeler for this).
