I made this for two as a main course, with much reduced quantities, below, and it was still too much. I would be inclined to reduce the pasta a little and rely upon your best judgement for the remaining quantities.
I used:
- 250g pasta
- 130g mushrooms
- 90g mange tout
- 90g chopped sliced chorizo
- 4 slices of Home smoked bacon
