You Will Need:
250g of Rotini Pasta
1 Medium Onion, Finely Chopped
250g of Oyster Mushrooms, Sliced

2 tbsp of Finely Chopped Fresh Parsley
Some Finely Chopped Lemon Basil
2 Finely Chopped Fresno Pepper, Depending on how hot you like
Salt to Taste
2 tbsp of Butter / Olive Oil
The Cooking:
Heat a large saucepan with ample water, sea salt and a tbsp of oil on high. Once the water begins to boil tumble in the rotini and give a quick stir. Cook for 15 mins or till the pasta is cooked stirring every few mins to avoid sticking to the bottom. Drain the rotini and run under cold water to avoid them from sticking.
NOTE: Adding oil to the water has no significance. Make sure u have the flame high and the water boils rapidly throughout cooking the pasta. Only this helps the pasta to stay separated.
