How To Make Gordon Ramsay Mushroom Pasta At Home

If you want to make pasta but with a twist, I suggest you try Gordon Ramsay’s mushroom pasta. In addition to mushrooms, you’ll find leeks and tarragon in the pasta. Also, the twist is that instead of the regular pasta like spaghetti or penne, Gordon Ramsay uses lasagna sheets. Unusual, I know!

Gordon Ramsay Mushroom Pasta

According to Ramsay, even though an unusual choice, the lasagna sheets go great with this recipe. It’s also very hunger-satisfying and you won’t be able to get enough of this dish. He cooks the mushrooms and leeks in stock and then in heavy cream.

This not only cooks the mushroom and leeks perfectly but also makes a sauce with a smoother consistency. I love this recipe because it is quite simple. You just make the mushroom sauce and then add the pasta to it. Don’t have leeks? Here is a list of leek substitutes.

Also, the garlic bruschetta is an amazing side dish to serve the pasta with. The creamy pasta and the crispy bruschetta are a match made in heaven. So, let’s see how to make them, shall we? But first, check out some other Gordon Ramsay recipes.
