- . In a large, deep pan, add the oil and butter to be slightly heated on MEDIUM-HIGH. Add the sliced onion and caramelize before adding the chopped garlic and shortly after, the mushrooms. Cook them well until lightly browned.
- . Meanwhile, prepare a large pot of salted water on HIGH heat in order to soon cook the pasta.
- . Also, during this time, prepare a medium bowl with whisked eggs, and most of the grated cheese. Some of the reserved cheese will be used for the garnish.
- . Once the onion-mushroom mix is browned, take most of it out of the pan and into a separate bowl. Set aside.
- . Add the sausages and slowly break up the meat as it's cooking.
- . Now, is the time to start the cooking of the pasta until it reaches the 'al dente' stage.
- . Once the sausage seems cooked, add back the onion-mushroom mix into the pan. Wait a few minutes, add the liquor and give it a stir as it deglazes the pan.
- . Add the salt, dried herbs and finally the cream. Cook until a light rising boil surfaces and then lower the heat to MEDIUM.
- . Strain the pasta and remember to reserve 3/4 cup (175ml) of cooking water to lengthen the sauce.
- . Add the pasta to the mix and toss thoroughly while adding the reserved pasta water.
- . Turn the heat off and immediately pour the egg-cheese mix over the pasta and mix quickly. Cover the pan for 2 minutes so that the flavours can properly blend together.
- . Serve hot with reserved grated cheese with a sprinkle of (optional) lemon zest and/or a touch of fresh parsley. Buon appetito.
