Sichuan Mushroom Ragu Skillet

Method

1. Gather and prep everything first: dried pasta, olive oil, garlic and set within reach of the stove.
2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the celery and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Turn the heat up, add the mushroom ragu, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
4. Stir in the black pepper along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Add the coconut milk and let it reduce until it just coats the back of a spoon.
6. Off the heat, brighten it up with a spoonful of yogurt and a final crack of pepper.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
