Ingredients
300g of linguine or spaghetti
100g of butter
3 cloves of garlic, finely sliced
4 sprigs of thyme, plus extra to garnish
200g of foraged mushrooms such as chanterelle, ceps or puffballs
Juice of ½ a lemon
Sea salt and black pepper
Method
Step 1

Bring a pan of salted water to the boil and add the linguine. Cook the pasta in a pan with a little salt for 6-8 minutes or until al dente.

Step 2

While the pasta is cooking, place a large frying pan over a high heat. Add the butter, garlic and thyme sprigs and fry for a minute or so, until the butter has turned slightly golden and is foaming. Add the mushrooms to the pan and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they are evenly coated in the butter and just tender. Remove the stalks of thyme, add the lemon juice and a generous sprinkling of seasoning and toss together.

Step 3

Drain the pasta and return to the pan, tossing through a generous glug of olive oil. Tip the mushroom and brown butter mixture into the pasta and toss together really well to evenly combine all of the ingredients.

Step 4

Taste to check the seasoning and serve with freshly grated single Gloucester cheese or parmesan and a sprinkling of chopped parsley.
