Sesame Soy Mushroom Pasta

1Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta (200 g) and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a cup of pasta (200 g) water.

2In a large skillet, heat a splash of oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms (200 g) and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown and tender.

3Add the cooked pasta (200 g) to the skillet with the mushrooms (200 g). Pour in the soy sauce (3 tablespoons) and toss everything together to combine. If the pasta (200 g) seems dry, add a little reserved pasta (200 g) water to achieve the desired consistency.

4Sprinkle the sesame seeds (2 tablespoons) over the pasta (200 g) and toss again to mix well. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

5Serve hot, garnished with extra sesame seeds (2 tablespoons) if desired.
