Ingredients

3/4 lb. dried spaghetti

3 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 cup butter (I use unsalted)

3 large portabella mushroom caps, gills scraped out and discarded, caps thinly sliced and cut into 2-inch pieces

salt and freshly ground black pepper

2/3 cup loosely packed fresh sage leaves

1/3 cup toasted walnuts, coarsely chopped

1/2 cup grated Parmesan (or to taste)

Directions

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until it’s tender but still firm to the tooth,.

Reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking water and then drain the pasta and set aside.

Meanwhile, heat the olive oil and 2 Tbs. of the butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until the butter is melted.

Add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper to taste, and cook, stirring occasionally, until they’re brown and tender, 4 to 5 min.

Transfer the mushrooms to a bowl and set aside.

In the same sauté pan, melt the remaining 6 Tbs. butter over medium heat. Add the sage leaves, and cook, stirring occasionally until they darken and crisp and the flecks of milk solids in the butter are golden brown, 3 to 5 min.

Return the mushrooms to the pan and pile in the walnuts, the cooked pasta, and 1/2 cup of the pasta water.

Toss the pasta continuously with tongs to coat well, adding more water as needed so the pasta is moist, 1 to 2 min. (If your skillet isn’t big enough, you can toss everything together in the pasta pot.)

Season with salt and pepper, mound into bowls, and sprinkle generously with the Parmesan.

Serve immediately.
