Инструкции
- Method
- * 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta, and cook until al dente, 10 to 13 minutes, depending on the size of the pasta. Drain and set aside.
- * 2. In a small pan over medium heat, melt 4 tablespoons butter. Remove from heat and set aside. In a small bowl, combine bread, thyme, and half the melted butter. Mix and set aside.
- * 3. In a large sauté pan over medium heat, combine remaining melted butter, onion and garlic. Sauté until onion is translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add mushrooms, adding olive oil if pan looks dry, and sauté until tender, about 12 minutes.
- * 4. When the mushrooms are tender, add wine and stir until it has evaporated. Add cream and 1 cup milk, and bring to a boil. Add the pasta, 10 ounces grated cheese, lemon zest and chopped parsley. Mix well, and season with salt and pepper to taste. If desired, add more milk and cheese as needed for a creamy, cheesy sauce.
- * 5. Butter a 10-inch diameter baking dish, 3- to 4-inches deep. Pour in pasta mixture, and top with bread mixture. Bake, uncovered, until the bread turns golden brown, 7 to 10 minutes. Serve hot.
