Directions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil over high heat. Add the fettuccine or linguine and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve ½ cup of the pasta water, drain, and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil and unsalted butter over medium heat. Add sliced leeks and sauté for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and aromatic.
- Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes until colored. Stir in minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Lower heat to medium-low and pour in heavy cream. Add shredded Gruyere and stir until melted and creamy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Combine the cooked pasta with the creamy sauce, adding reserved pasta water to reach desired consistency. Stir in remaining Gruyere and season with salt and pepper.
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley for color and freshness.
