Penne ai spinaci e funghi

Ingredients 4 persons

(as main course)

2 eetlepels olijfolie 1 ui, fijngesnipperd

1/2 teaspoon chiliflakes (dried chillies)

250 grams of chopped mushrooms

1,5-2 dl milk

2 tablespoons flour

150 grams of gorgonzola (or another blue cheese. You can also use brie)






🕐 10🔪25🍳 👩🏼‍🍳


1. Prepare the water for the pasta, so it can come to a boil. Add salt when the water is boiling.

2. Heat the olive oil with the chili flakes in the pan on not too high heat and add the onion. Let the onion turn golden. Then add the finely chopped mushrooms (first in slices and then in strips). Fry them gently on low heat.

3. Put the thawed spinach in another pan and let it warm gently.

4. Cook the spinach al dente: so 2 minutes less than it says on the packet.

5. When the mushrooms are also fried, make a roux of the onion-mushroom mixture: add 2 tablespoons of flour and fry. Then add the milk little by little. You may need less milk or more until you get a nice smooth sauce.

6. Add the roux with the onion and mushrooms to the spinach and stir well to create a creamy whole.

7. Add the gorgonzola (or your chosen cheese) in small cubes and let it melt gently.

8. Drain the pasta and stir it into the spinach, onion, mushrooms with cheese mixture.


👉🏽 Pasta koken: Als het water voor de pasta kookt, doe er dan pas zout bij. Voeg vervolgens de pasta toe en laat het water weer koken. Roer de pasta goed door, draai het vuur uit en doe de deksel op de pan. Houd vanaf het moment dat het water weer kookt de kooktijd -2 minuten aan. Roer tussendoor de pasta flink door zodat die niet kleeft. Daarna gewoon afgieten. Het voordeel is dat de pasta nooit kleeft aan de onderkant van de pan.
