Tagliatelle with Mushrooms: Gourmet Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 pound tagliatelle pasta
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter
• 1 large onion, diced
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 pound mixed mushrooms, sliced
• 1/2 cup white wine (optional)
• 1 cup heavy cream
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions:

1. Fill a large pot with salted water and bring to a boil. Cook the tagliatelle pasta according to package instructions, or until al dente.
2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté until translucent.
3. Add the garlic and thyme and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and sauté until they release their liquid, about 10 minutes. If using, pour in the white wine and cook until it has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
