Pasta with Girolles, Anchovy, and Crispy Breadcrumbs

Step 2

Heat a frying pan and add the oil from the tin of anchovies. If this is less than 3 tablespoons, add another splash of olive oil.

Step 3

Fry the panko crumbs in the anchovy oil until they are golden, then drain on kitchen paper and set aside.

Step 4

Cook the pasta in boiling salted water until al dente.

Step 5

Heat some more olive oil in the same pan and gently cook the anchovies and garlic. Add the mushrooms and cook without stirring until they’ve taken on some colour.

Step 6

Stir the mushrooms and add the splash of white wine. Allow this to bubble down, then season with salt and pepper.

Step 7

Add the pasta and a ladleful of the pasta water, and stir until you have a creamy sauce.

Step 8

Garnish with the parsley, and serve.
