Instructions

For the keto mushroom pasta

Heat up olive oil (and/or butter) in a skillet over medium heat. Add in shallot (or about 1/4 of an onion) and cook until just translucent, 1-2 minutes.
Add in mushrooms with a generous pinch of salt and cook, stirring every so often, until softened (3-5 minutes). Add in heavy or coconut cream to taste and cook for a couple minutes. Season to taste, mix in parsley and serve right away with pasta of choice and a generous grating of Parmesan cheese.

To cook the orecchiette pasta

Heat up butter and oil in a skillet or pan over low heat. Once warm, add in garlic slivers. When the garlic begins to brown, add in chilled pasta and baste right away.
Cook pasta until it just begins to get some color, we found this gave the most 'al dente' texture (soft but with a bite). Feel free to make a test with one piece.
Serve right away with mushroom sauce.
