Creamy Pasta with Mushrooms, Speck, and Brie

I can suggest a recipe for a delicious creamy pasta with mushrooms, speck and brie. I hope to satisfy your palate with this flavor-rich dish.

Ingredients

  • 320 g of pasta (penne or tagliatelle work well)
  • 200 g of mushrooms (champignons or porcini, depending on preference)
  • 150 g of brie
  • 100 g of diced speck
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • Chopped fresh parsley
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 100 ml of cooking cream

Preparation

  1. Start by cleaning the mushrooms with a damp cloth (it’s important not to wash them under water to prevent them from absorbing too much liquid) and slice them not too thinly.
  2. In a large pan, sauté the garlic with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Then add the speck and let it brown until it becomes crispy.
  3. Remove the garlic if you prefer and add the mushrooms. Let them cook over medium-high heat until they lose all their water.
  4. Meanwhile, bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the instructions on the package.
  5. Cut the brie into cubes and add it to the mushrooms and speck in the pan. Let it melt slightly, then pour in the cooking cream.
  6. Drain the pasta al dente and transfer it to the pan with the sauce. Mix well to blend the ingredients.
  7. Adjust with salt and pepper and add fresh chopped parsley before serving.

You can garnish the dish with more fresh parsley or cheese flakes according to your preferences. It’s recommended to accompany the meal with a white wine that complements the creaminess of the dish, such as Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio.

Enjoy your meal!
