15 Minute Mushroom Tagliatelle

This mushroom tagliatelle with creamy garlic sauce takes just 15 minutes to make! It's one of my favourite easy weeknight pasta dishes.

Comforting, quick and delicious 😍

Quick and easy pasta dishes are pretty much my life.

At least once a week I'll throw one together when I'm feeling especially tired or pushed for time and this mushroom tagliatelle is the latest of my weeknight creations.

It's so easy, uses just a handful of ingredients and requires barely any thinking or cooking before you've got a comforting bowl of pasta in front of you.

And of course mushrooms and pasta is such a classic combination and packed with flavour. From creamy mushroom pasta to mushroom pasta bake and five ingredient garlic mushroom pasta these is just so much goodness to be found in that mushroom and pasta combination!

Why we love this mushroom tagliatelle:

• It takes just 15 minutes to make from start to finish which makes it the perfect weeknight dinner
• It's suitable for vegetarians but you could easily add chicken if you miss the meat
• It requires just 6 ingredients, including the parsley for garnish, to make this dish

Mushroom Tagliatelle Ingredients:

• Garlic: The base for every delicious pasta dish
• Mushrooms: I went for chestnut but you could use any type you like
• Crème Fraîche: For that delicious creamy sauce
• Tagliatelle: I love how this long cut of pasta works in a creamy dish but you could use a different cut of pasta if you prefer
• Fresh Parsley: For garnish or switch to another herb if you prefer

Mushroom Tagliatelle Instructions:

1. Cook the mushrooms: Heat the oil and add the garlic, cook until softened then add the mushrooms and season well. Cook for about 10 minutes until softened.
2. Cook the pasta: Cook the pasta according to packet instructions in salted water
3. Finish the sauce: Add the crème fraîche to the mushrooms and stir then use tongs to transfer the pasta to the sauce and toss. Serve with chopped parsley.

Expert tips for making mushroom tagliatelle:

• If the sauce needs thinning slightly add a little pasta water while tossing the pasta and sauce together
• To make this recipe with meat you can add some cooked chicken before serving
• Feel free to add extra veggies to this dish if you like. Asparagus or broccoli would be good
• To make this recipe gluten free simply use your favourite brand of gluten free pasta

Is spaghetti the same as tagliatelle?

Spaghetti and tagliatelle aren't the same although they are both long pastas. Spaghetti are strings of pasta while tagliatelle are flat strips. Although they are different both could definitely be used for this recipe so feel free to sub in spaghetti if that's what you have on hand.

How do you clean mushrooms?

Mushrooms are porous so it's important not to wash them using water - they'll suck up all the water which will stop them from browning when you add them to the pan. Simply use a slightly damp paper towel to wipe any dirt away.
