Vegetarian Bolognese With Soy Chorizo Recipes

Steps:

• Bring about 3 cups lightly salted water to a boil in a medium-sized pot. Add pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Add marinara sauce and diced tomatoes and stir. Add soy chorizo and mix until texture is even, 3 to 5 minutes. Add oregano, cayenne pepper, and paprika; reduce heat and simmer until pasta has finished cooking, about 8 minutes more. Add basil.
• Drain cooked pasta; top with sauce. Season with black pepper and salt.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, in a large Dutch oven, melt 2 tablespoons butter with the olive oil over medium-high. When foaming, add the onion, carrots and cauliflower, season with 1 teaspoon salt and a few pepper grinds. Cook, stirring just once or twice, until browned and juicy, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the tomato paste, soy sauce and garlic and cook, stirring and smashing the vegetables, until the tomato paste is a shade darker and sticks to the bottom of the pot, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the milk and bay leaf, season with salt and pepper, reduce heat to low, and stir to combine, scraping up browned bits from the pot. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the milk has thickened slightly and the vegetables are very soft, 15 to 20 minutes. (At first the pan will look dry, then the vegetable liquid will thin the sauce and it will thicken slightly).
• Halfway through cooking the sauce, add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente. Reserve 1 cup pasta water and drain. If the sauce is ready before the pasta, remove sauce from heat and keep covered.
• Remove the bay leaf from the sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Increase heat to medium-high. Add the pasta, 1/2 cup pasta water, the Parmesan and the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Stir vigorously until the pasta is well coated, adding more pasta water as needed until the sauce is glossy. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and serve with more grated Parmesan on top.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a saucepan and gently fry the onion, carrots and celery until the onion is starting to soften. Stir in the garlic and the Quorn (there's no need to defrost it) and fry for a couple of mins. Add the bay leaf, passata, vegetable stock cube and 200ml water, then bring everything to the boil.
• Turn down the heat and simmer for 30 mins or until all the pieces of veg are tender and disappearing into the tomato sauce. Add the milk, then cover with a lid and cook for 10 mins. Season to taste. If the sauce is a bit thin, keep bubbling until it thickens. Stir through the basil. Serve with the spaghetti and grate the cheese over the top, if you like. Can be frozen into portions and reheated.

Steps:

• In a large dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
• Add the chopped onions and carrots and saute for about 5 minutes, until they begin to soften.
• Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Don't add too much as you will be adding soy sauce later for color.
• Then add dry italian seasonings and crushed red pepper, if using. Mix well and add a bit more olive oil if pan looks dry.
• Add minced garlic and stir until fragrant.
• Next add the dry TVP, and stir to coat evenly with onion, carrot and spice mixture.
• Then add the soy sauce, which will give the TVP great flavor, and a bit darker color.
• Pan will be dry, so quickly add the cup of vegetable broth to rehydrate the tvp.
• Stir to coat all the tvp well, scraping the sides of the pan if needed.
• Let simmer for a minute or two.
• Next add your can of tomato paste, mix well and cook for a minute or two before adding the large can of crushed tomatoes.
• As sauce begins to bubble, be sure to stir in the tomato paste into the crushed tomatoes.
• Reduce heat to low, and simmer while you cook pasta.
• Cook whole wheat pasta in a large pot f boiling salted water for 7-9 minutes, or until al dente.
• Drain pasta and place in large serving bowl.
• Top with bolognese sauce, chopped fresh basil or parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Add the mushrooms, onion, walnuts, chickpeas, jalapeño, and garlic to a food processor. Pulse until very coarsely chopped.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the mushroom and chickpea mixture to the pan. Sprinkle in the paprika, garlic powder, cumin, oregano, salt, smoked paprika, coriander, chili powder, pepper, onion powder, red pepper flakes, and cinnamon. Sauté for 8-10 minutes, stirring often, until lightly browned.
• Add the tomato paste. Continue cooking for 3 minutes more, until the mixture is slightly thickened and browned.
• Add the apple cider vinegar and soy sauce. Stir and sauté for 2 minutes, until the liquid is absorbed.
• Serve the chorizo hot in your favorite dishes.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Cook the spaghetti in plenty of boiling water until tender, 10-15 minutes.
