Preparation

Step 1

Heat a large frying pan with the olive oil; add the celery, garlic, mushrooms, salt, pepper and dried oregano. Sauté, until the mushrooms get a slightly golden color and the garlic is fragrant.
In a small bowl combine the water, Vegeta seasoning, lemon juice, butter and cilantro or Italian parsley. With the heat on low, add this mixture to the mushroom pan and keep the heat on low while preparing the fettuccini as directed.
Drain the fettuccini and place in a serving bowl with a drizzle of olive oil and a dash of red pepper flakes. Pour the mushroom sauce over the fettuccini and toss; top with grated Parmesan or Romano cheese.
