Originally, I was going to make a mushroom risotto for this series, but the more I thought about it, the less I liked the idea. Not that there’s anything wrong with mushroom risotto, it’s just a little boring. There are a million recipes out there already, and in the nicest way possible to anyone who has one, a lot of them are very similar. So, I thought about what else I can make with mushrooms, that’s also simple, and a little less expected. Then I came up with this roasted mushroom pasta recipe that I think might help some of you out.
This series is all about vitamin D, so the roasted mushrooms are the key part of this recipe. And although I’ve served them in this pasta dish today, you can serve them with just about anything. Before I settled on pasta, I considered cooking and serving them with herby roast potatoes, in a garlic and herb gnocchi, alternate pasta dishes with a richer tomato sauce. The serving suggestions go on, and the mushrooms themselves are pretty versatile.
Vitamin D Sources
The chestnut mushrooms in this recipe are the source of vitamin D. A 100g serving provides 5.00µg, which is 50% of the RDA.
Nutritional Information
Using regular GF corn pasta, rather than a protein alternative like lentil or pea, this recipe provides 12g of fibre and 11g of protein. As well as being high in vitamin D, this recipe provides 20-30% of the RDA of vitamins B1, B2, B3 and B5.
Roasted Mushrooms
In the introduction,
I said this recipe might help some of you out. By that, I meant the texture issue. If you don’t mind the taste of mushrooms but hate the texture, this one is for you. Roasting the mushrooms dries them out considerably, they become crisp, rather than soggy and chewy and that squishy texture disappears instantly. And they absorb the flavours of the dressing you cook them in brilliantly too.

Roasted Mushroom Pasta Recipe
Ingredients
Roasted Mushrooms
- 100 g chestnut mushrooms sliced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tbsp tamari
- ½ tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary or 1 tsp dried rosemary
- 2 cloves garlic thinly sliced
Pasta
- 90 g GF pasta of choice
Extras
- 2 tbsp vegan parmesan
Instructions
-
Heat oven to 190°c fan/gas 6. Arrange the mushrooms in a roasting tray in a single layer, then cook for 10- 15 mins, depending on how thick/ thin you’ve sliced them. I recommend thinner slices for those who don’t like the texture of mushrooms.
-
Meanwhile, mix the garlic, rosemary, olive oil, tamari and vinegar. Remove mushrooms and pour away any liquid, then toss in the oil and herb mix. Return to the oven for 10-15 mins more until fully dried and starting to crisp. Cook your pasta at the same time, as per packet instructions.
-
Once ready, stir into your cooked pasta and sprinkle vegan parmesan before serving.
Serve and enjoy!
Do you like the sound of crispy roasted mushrooms? How would you serve yours?
Until next time,

Love mushrooms. Love pasta. Sounds like a winner to me! I’ve never tried roasting a mushroom before I don’t think and now I’m really intrigued as to how they’ll come out. Love the sound of this one (and I’m a huge fan of mushroom risotto for what it’s worth!)
This sounds so good! I love mushrooms 🙂

Nice mushroom pasta ❤
This looks so good! Love seeing the pictures of your creations! I am a big mushroom fan xx
This sounds like the perfect Autumn dish (although I’d probably make it all year round anyway!). I know what you mean about mushroom risotto, everyone has their own recipe already and they’re definitely all pretty similar!

Oookay, I love this! Mushroom cream pasta is one of my absolute favourites but making the mushrooms crispy like this brings this dish onto a whole new level! Definitely going to try this asap.

I don’t know why, but I’ve never really thought of roasting mushrooms before. This reminds me of a delicious dish I had in Rome in December x

I’m not usually a big mushroom person but actually enjoy them in some pastas. This one sounds so tasty!
Crispy roasted mushrooms definitely sound more up my street. I’m not a huge fan of mushrooms but I like the taste more than I like the texture and the texture really is what puts me off sometimes!
I’m not the biggest fan of mushrooms but my mum loves them! I’ll definitely give her this recipe.
