Add the mushrooms, then fry for 5 mins more, stirring every so often, until everything begins to caramelise.

  • STEP 2

    Meanwhile, cook the pasta. Drain, then add to the squash mix with a little of the pasta water. Toss with most of the Parmesan and serve in bowls, sprinkled with the remaining cheese.
