Ingredients

9 total
  • 350 g of spaghetti
  • 25 g of unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp of olive oil
  • 250 g of chestnut mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed or grated
  • 100 g of parmesan (or vegetarian hard cheese), finely grated, plus extra to serve
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp of white miso paste
  • 240 g of baby spinach

Method

6 steps
  1. Step 1

    Cook the spaghetti according to the pack instructions, until al dente.

  2. Step 2

    Meanwhile, heat the butter and oil in a large pan over a high heat and fry the mushrooms for 5 mins, stirring halfway. Stir in the garlic for 1 min, then reduce the heat to low.

  3. Step 3

    When the pasta is ready, lift it from the water with tongs – you want it to have some water clinging to it – and drop into the mushroom pan. Reserve the cooking water.

  4. Step 4

    In a bowl, whisk the cheese, eggs and miso with a few grinds of black pepper. Add 2 tbsp pasta water.

  5. Step 5

    Remove the pan from the heat, pour in the miso mixture and use the tongs to combine everything, adding another 1-2 tbsp of pasta water to loosen, if needed.

  6. Step 6

    Toss through the spinach until wilted; serve immediately with extra cheese, if you like.
