Creamy Mushroom Pasta








The sun is finally out today!  It has been dark and rainy in Singapore the past 2 days.  I happened to be surfing through PinInterest and chanced upon this recipe from sweet paul.  It made a hearty, sunny lunch... The only thing I would change in the recipe would be reducing the amount of cream.  Other than that, it was a great recipe!  Thanks, Paul!  :)

  4. Made this tonight and it was good but the sauce was too thin. Any way to make it thicker and creamy?

    1. Add more cream? The other way I can think of is to dissolve a little flour in water and mix it into the sauce
