Nigella Lawson’s easy garlic and mushroom pasta recipe tastes ‘divine’
Pasta is the perfect mid-week meal as it’s quick and easy and can be served with a multitude of different flavours.
Spaghetti bolognese, carbonara, puttanesca and pesto are just some of the most popular pasta dishes Britons eat on a regular basis.
But if you’re looking for something new, Nigella Lawson‘s linguine with lemon, garlic and thyme mushrooms could be the one for you.
Nigella’s recipe, which is from her book NIGELLA EXPRESS, can be made in just a few steps.
Nigella said of the recipe: « It is about as speedy as you can imagine: you do no more to the mushrooms than slice them, steep them in oil, garlic, lemon and thyme and toss them into the hot cooked pasta.
« If all you can find is regular button mushrooms, this pasta is still worth making – so no excuses. »
Fans of Nigella who have made the recipe described it as « divine » and a « family favourite ».
One fan said: « Absolute family favourite. We use less salt and add some diced good-quality ham. My son said ‘it reminds me of the pasta in Italy’! »
Another wrote: « Absolutely gorgeous recipe, simple and tasty. It’s definitely made it onto my regular menu plan! The family loved it and so did I! »
