This recipe I picked up from the tv show Everyday Exotic on TLC.The simplicity of the dish inspired me. Even though I could not pick all the actual ingredients that were required, I did my best.

- Spinach - 150 gms
- Salt & black pepper
Preparation:
- Cook pasta as per the direction and keep aside
- In a pan add olive and let it warm up. Also add butter. Adding the butter with oil, ensures the butter doesn't burn

- Add the thyme and diced mushroom and saute them until golden brown
- Add white wine and stir and mix them all well.

- Allow the sauce to reduce, it should become thick. In order to check if its thick, dip the spoon and the sauce should coat evenly on the back of the spoon.
