Hide images
step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6.
step 2
Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Add the pasta (2 packs) and cook for 3 minutes, then drain.
step 3
Heat 40g of the truffle butter (40 g) in a frying pan over a medium-high heat. When foaming, add the shallot (1) and cook for 2 minutes.
step 4
Add the garlic (2 cloves) and mushrooms (150 g) and cook for 5-7 minutes, until the mushrooms are browned. Remove from the heat and set aside.
step 5
Melt the remaining truffle butter (60 g) in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Add the flour (50 g) and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring well.
step 6
Gradually whisk in the milk (750 ml), whisking thoroughly between additions. Continue whisking until the sauce thickens.
step 7
Reduce the heat and add the diced mozzarella (150 g), mascarpone (200 g) and half the pecorino (25 g). Stir until melted, then mix in the truffle pesto (6 tbsp). Season to taste, then stir through the cooked pasta.
step 8
Transfer the pasta to a large ovenproof dish. Spoon over the mushroom mixture and sprinkle with the remaining pecorino (25 g) and grated mozzarella (80 g).
step 9
Bake in the centre of the oven for 10 minutes. For an extra-golden top, switch on the grill and cook for a further 1-2 minutes, until golden and bubbling.
