There is something extremely comforting and homely about the smell of this dish as you take it from the oven. The deep earthy aroma of the mushrooms and the salty tang of the pancetta and parmesan makes me salivate. All you you want to do is to curl up on a sofa and dive into a big bowl of this. It doesn’t matter if all those fallen leaves are dancing around in the wind outside because this dish will make you feel cosy. The silky, intense mushroom and bechamel coated pasta warms you and all is alright with the world. True comfort food.
