Tahini, Mushroom and Pistachio Fusilli
Tahini, Mushroom and Pistachio Fusilli

Ingredients

Method

  • 75g pistachio kernels
  • 400g chestnut mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 350g fusilli pasta
  • 10g thyme leaves
  • 2 peeled garlic cloves
  • 4 tbsp quality tahini
  • Toast the pistachios in a dry pan for 4 mins or until fragrant, then add to a bowl. Toss the mushrooms into the pan with the oil and some salt, then fry until softened. Meanwhile, cook the pasta in boiling salted water until al dente and drain, reserving a cup of the cooking water.
  • Add ¾ of the pistachios, the thyme, garlic, tahini and 100ml water to a blender and whizz until smooth. Stir the sauce into the pan with the mushrooms, and cook for a couple of minutes to coat. Add the drained pasta - along with a splash of the pasta water - and mix well, then season and scatter with the remaining pistachios.
