In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the Italian sausages, breaking them up with a spoon, and cook until browned. Stir in the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are tender.

Make the Sauce
Once the sausage and mushrooms are cooked, lower the heat and add the truffle paste and heavy cream. Stir well to combine and let it simmer for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
