directions
- Bechamel: melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and stir until a smooth paste forms. Gradually whisk in the milk. Bring to a boil while whisking constantly, then lower the heat and simmer gently for a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Pasta: in a large pot of boiled salted water, cook the pasta until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, sauté the mushrooms in the butter until they release their liquid and brown. Season with salt and pepper. Add the onions and garlic. Continue cooking for about 2 minutes. Add the pasta and heat through. Deglaze with the vodka, flambéing if desired. Add the béchamel and tomatoes and stir to coat the pasta. Adjust the seasoning.
- Garnish: transfer to a large serving bowl. Garnish with cheese, green onions and pine nuts. Serve immediately.

great recipe, the bechamel needed a bit of a lift so I added in some Parmesan cheese and cayenne pepper, I reduced the vodka to 1/4 cup, increased the garlic to 2 tablespoons and I used full-fat milk, I also threw in some cooked chicken for a main meal, my DH enjoyed this, thank you for sharing hon!...Kitten:)Reply
