Hi everyone!

Today we prepare a dish suitable for everyone, even vegans: the pennette with cream and mushrooms.

For the vegan version, you will just have to replace the normal cream with a soy based one.

You might wonder what I mean with “pennette“. Well, this is a short pasta that we use in Italy. It suits very well all recipes with a sauce because it absorbs the taste of it. If you can’t find it, you can use also other kinds of short pasta.

You will obtain good and complete dish without meat nor fish.

Let’s start:

PENNETTE WITH CREAM AND MUSHROOMS

Ingredients for 4 people: 250 g sliced champignon mushrooms – 150 ml cream (vegetable or soy for vegans) – enough salt – one clove of garlic – 150 g pennette – olive oil – 2-3 tablespoons grated cheese for non-vegans

Preparation:

Start by cooking the sliced mushrooms in a pan with a drizzle of olive oil, salt and a clove of garlic. Bring the water for the pasta to a boil and add salt.

When the mushrooms are well cooked add the cream.

Mix well, without adding water because the mushrooms during cooking release water.

Add 2-3 tablespoons of grated cheese and stir well.

Toss the pasta and cook slightly al dente (al dente means not too cooked), following the directions on the package.

Drain the pasta and add it to the dressing. Mix well and serve. If you have it, you can add fresh chopped parsley.

Enjoy your meal!
