Mushroom Garlic Tagliatell­e

-

Serves 4. PG tested

Cooking fresh sheets of lasagne right in the pan with the other ingredient­s eliminates having to boil and drain dried tagliatell­e for this vegetarian pasta dish. The original recipe calls for using arugula but I used micro greens. I also subbed baby bella for oyster mushrooms because they’re more readily available.

1 pound fresh lasagne sheets

16 ounces sliced baby bella mushrooms

2 cloves garlic

1 1⁄2 ounces Parmesan cheese

Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

4 sprigs thyme or fresh rosemary

Handful shelled, unsalted walnut halves 4 heaping tablespoon­s ricotta or cottage cheese Large handful of fresh greens

Bring 5 cups of water to a boil in a kettle or saucepan. Cut lasagne sheets lengthways into 1⁄2-inch strips to make tagliatell­e.

Put a 12-inch frying pan on a high heat and dry fry the mushrooms as it heats up.

Peel and finely slice garlic. Finely grate the Parmesan.

Once mushrooms are lightly charred, add a little drizzle of olive oil to the pan with the garlic, strip in the thyme leaves, then crumble in the walnuts. When the garlic is lightly golden, scatter the pasta into the pan.

Carefully pour in enough boiling water to just cover the pasta – about 4 or so cups. Let it bubble away for 4 minutes, or until the pasta has absorbed most of the water and you’ve got a nice sauce, stirring regularly and loosening with an extra splash of water, if needed.

Stir in Parmesan, ricotta or cottage cheese and arugula, keeping everything moving, then season to perfection with salt and pepper. Finish with a kiss of olive oil, if you like. Adapted from “One: Simple One-Pan Wonders” by Jamie Oliver (Flatiron Books, $35)
