Add the pasta and the mushrooms to a pan that is not on a flame. This is to prevent the eggs from curdling. Add the egg mixture along with some of the reserved pasta water and mix thoroughly to ensure the egg mixture emulsifies into a creamy sauce. Add more pasta cooking water as needed. Garnish with more parmesan cheese and optionally some shredded basil.
