Ingredients

  • 1 lb. Pasta (I used Barilla Cellentani)
  • 3 c. Button Mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 Cloves Garlic, finely chopped
  • 1/4 c. Scallions, chopped
  • 2 c. 2% Milk

  • 2 tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1/2 c. Pecorino Romano Cheese, grated
  • Kosher Salt, to taste
  • Fresh Ground Pepper, to taste

Preparation

Step 1

Cook pasta according to package directions. In a large non-stick frying pan, heat oil over medium heat. Add mushrooms, garlic and scallions and saute until lightly browned. Stir in the flour then slowly add in the milk until it starts to thicken. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and let simmer for 15 minutes. Add the cheese and let thicken. Season with salt and pepper. Drain the pasta, combine with sauce and garnish with parsley. Serves 4-6.
