Ingredients

  • 500 g Linguini
  • 500 g (+- 1lb) mushrooms sliced
  • 2 leeks finely chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves thinly sliced
  • 2 tsp oregano
  • 1/2 cup heavy or whipping cream
  • juice of ½ lemon
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • fresh oregano to serve optional
  • Parmesan for serving

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil and add the linguine. Cook for +- 10 minutes until al dente.
  • Meanwhile, in a large sauce pan, fry the mushrooms and leeks until all the liquid from the mushrooms have evaporated and the mushrooms have started to brown (+- 5-7 minutes). Add the garlic and oregano and fry for another minute.
  • Add the cream and lemon juice and season to taste.
  • Drain the linguine, reserve 1 cup of water and add to the sauce. Add a few tablespoons of the pasta cooking water and toss to coat the linguine in the sauce. Serve with extra cracked black pepper and a few oregano leaves.
