Instructions

1
- Boil a pot of salted water for the rigatoni.
- When boiling, add the pasta and cook until softened, 12 mins.
- Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pot.
- Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.
TIP: If you're in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

2
- Meanwhile, place a medium pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces. Clean the mushrooms with kitchen paper and cut them into quarters.
- When the oil is hot, add the onion and fry for 1-2 mins. Add the mushrooms and cook for 5-7 mins, stirring occasionally.
- Add the pesto and creme fraiche and heat for 2-3 min, until slightly thickened.

3
- Roughly chop the parsley, stalks and all.
- Add the drained pasta to the pan with the mushroom pesto mixture.
- Toss to coat fully.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.

4
- Divide the pasta between bowls.
