How To
  • 1
    Lemon Butter:
    Let the butter rest in room temperature until it is soft. Take a pan on medium heat and squeeze in the juice of 2 lemons. Let it reduce, around half the volume. Then take it off the heat and add the butter whilst stirring quickly until it fully combines. Once ready let it rest in the fridge.

    Cheese Crunch
    Place the grated cheese on a non-stick baking sheet and form thin rectangles. Bake them at 150°C until they are crunchy and golden.

    Pasta and Mushrooms - Step 1
    Cook Capellini in boiling salted water until al dente. In the meantime heat a frying pan and sauté the mushrooms with a drizzle of olive oil. Once golden brown, add the soy sauce and extract everything from the pan into a bowl with a spatula and store it.

    Step 2
    Add ml of the pasta’s cooking water into the pan, with the lemon butter and parsley to deglaze. Put the pasta in the pan and give it a toss to then bring back the mushrooms.

    Step 3
    Sauté all together. After a few tosses, turn off the heat and add the chives and lemon zest. Plate and serve with the cheese crunch on top. Bon Appetit!
