A little detail makes it lovely.
Let the mushrooms sit against the hot pan between stirs. They need time to brown before the cream goes in.

Let's make it
- 01
Cook the rigatoni
Boil the pasta in salted water according to package directions. Save a mug of cooking water, then drain.
- 02
Brown the mushrooms
While the pasta cooks, warm the oil and butter in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook for 7–9 minutes, stirring occasionally, until their liquid evaporates and they begin to brown.
- 03
Add the cream
Reduce the heat. Add garlic, salt, and pepper and stir for 30 seconds. Stir in cream and simmer gently for 2 minutes.
- 04
Toss to finish
Add pasta and a splash of pasta water. Remove from heat, fold in the cheese, and toss. Add more pasta water, a spoonful at a time, for a silky consistency.
