ingredients

  • 3 cups sliced Mushrooms
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
  • 4 teaspoons Soy sauce
  • 2 cups Vegan bacon pieces
  • 4 cups Tagliatelle
  • 1 teaspoons minced Garlic
  • 1/2 cup Soy milk
  • 4 teaspoons White miso paste
  • 3 teaspoons Cornstarch
  • 4 teaspoons Lemon juice
  • 6 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
  • Seasoning, to taste
  • chopped Parsley, to taste
  • Vegan parmesan, to taste

Method

  • Step 1

    Mix the balsamic vinegar and soy sauce together. Add the sliced mushrooms and stir until mushrooms are coated.

  • Step 2

    Heat up a frying pan on a medium-high heat. Add 1 tbsp of the olive oil and fry the sliced mushrooms until golden brown on both sides. Remove mushrooms and put aside.

  • Step 3

    Now add the bacon pieces to the pan and fry until a deep golden brown. Put aside.

  • Step 4

    Cook the tagliatelle in a saucepan of salted boiling water until al-dente (follow the pack instructions). Reserve the pasta water. You’ll need about 240 ml.

  • Step 5

    Next, heat up a large pan on a medium heat and add the minced garlic and stir.

  • Step 6

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, miso and cornstarch. You want it to be a smooth, lump free consistency.

  • Step 7

    Add the pasta water to your pan along with the lemon juice and nutritional yeast.

  • Step 8

    Stir until fully mixed and then add in the milk and miso mix we made earlier. Stir until the sauce thickens. This should take 4-5 minutes. Season your sauce to taste.

  • Step 9

    Add the cooked pasta to the pan, along with the bacon pieces and mushrooms and stir until everything is covered in the sauce.

  • Step 10

    Serve and then top with chopped parsley and vegan parmesan.
