House Creamy Mushroom Pasta
All my friends who know me well know that I especially love rich, creamy dishes. Take pasta for example: classic cream pasta is my absolute favorite. But I rarely tried making it at home before, because cooking the white cream sauce always felt troublesome. If it didn’t go well, the sauce in the pasta would turn lumpy and not smooth at all, and the creamy aroma was never as rich as what you get in Western restaurants. Recently I discovered a new secret weapon for Western-style cooking—House Xiqu Cream Stew Cubes. They’re not only great for pasta; dishes like creamy stews, creamy baked rice, and cream of mushroom soup are all a breeze. They’re very easy to use: just break them up and add them in, just like the curry blocks you’re used to, and you’ll get a pot of richly creamy Western-style goodness. The smooth sauce coats every single ingredient, and every bite is pure happiness! With House helping out, making Western food at home is truly so simple!
Ingredients
Steps
Prepare all the ingredients first. Thinly slice the onion and mushrooms, and cut the bacon into 2cm-wide strips.
Pour salad oil into a frying pan and heat it, then add the onion, bacon, and mushrooms and stir-fry.
Pour in the water and cook over high heat for about 10 minutes.
While that is simmering, cook the pasta in another pot until done.
Now it’s time to bring out the secret weapon for cream pasta: House Xiqu Cream Stew Cubes.
Turn off the heat for the moment, then add a whole box of broken-up Xiqu Cream Stew Cubes and let them melt. They melt very quickly, saving both time and effort, and at this point the whole kitchen will be filled with a rich milky aroma.
Once melted, turn the heat back on low and cook for about 5 minutes until the cream sauce thickens.
Add the cooked pasta to the pan and toss a few times so that it’s evenly coated with the cream sauce.
Plate the pasta. Just look at that tempting color—making something as good as restaurant-style Western pasta at home is so easy!
Finally, sprinkle parsley, black pepper, and grated cheese on top to taste, and you’re ready to dig in!
