Snow White and the seven (chopped) dwarves - Mushrooms sauce



This sauce is perfect with farfalle, conchiglioni or for vegetarian lasagne. Easy to make and very tasty.

Yield: 4-6 servings

  • 1 onion, thinly chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, smashed
  • 500gr champignon, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 glass of beer
  • 40ml extra-virgin olive oil or 50gr butter
  • 330ml cream
  • salt
  • pepper
  • parsley, chopped




At a low fire, melt onion and garlic. When ready, add the mushrooms. (15 minutes).


When the champignon are cooked (15 minutes), add the beer. Normally you could put the same amount of dry white wine, but I personally prefer the sharper taste given by the beer. Add some salt and pepper.



When the alcohol has evaporated (10 minutes) pour the cream and add some more salt and pepper.
Put the fire to medium and stir frequently.



When the sauce has thickened (10 minutes), add the parlsey.



The perfect topping is Pecorino, but Parmigiano Reggiano can go well, too.
