Pasta in mushroom sauce

When you are doing all the cooking yourself, the family tends to have a more varied diet. Pasta often make sn appearance twice a week, and mushrooms grave the table at least once. And spices too- I've consumed more nutmeg in the last month than I did in the year before!!!!
This pasta tasted much better than it looked. 
300 gms pasta
1 packet mushrooms
1 large onion, sliced long 
1 tbsp butter
1/2 tsp nutmeg
2 tsp ground pepper
2 tbdp cornflour
1/2 cup chicken stock (I substituted with water)
Salt to taste

Method:
Cook the pasta according to the instructions on the pack. Drain and keep aside. 
Heat the butter, sauté the onions till brown. 
Meanwhile wash mushrooms well and slice longitudinally. 
Add mushroom to the onions and sauté on a low flame till browned. 
Add cornflour, salt, pepper and nutmeg and stir till mushrooms are well coated. Sauté till browned. 
Add stock, and allow it to simmer for 10 minutes. 
Add the pasta, mix well. Serve hot.
