- 1 cup mushrooms finely chopped / blitzed
- 1 cup zucchini grated
- 1 cup carrot grated
- 1/4 cup celery finely chopped
- 1/4 cup red onion finely chopped
- 700 g tomato passata or the SSH veg-packed passata in 'sides' collection
- 1 cup red lentils rinsed
- 1 cup vegetable stock
- 1 tbsp butter or olive oil, coconut oil
- 1 tbsp Italian herbs dried (optional)
- 350 gram pasta we use gluten free spirals (san remo range)
- 2 tbsp feta cheese optional
- sea salt & pepper to taste
Pan fry onion on low heat in a fry pan or large pot with a scoop of butter til soft.
Add remaining chopped and grated vegetables and continue to pan fry til all lightly cooked.
Add in passata, lentils, stock and more water, if consistency is too thick.
Gently allow to simmer on stove top for minimum 20 mins - longer if possible. The flavour develops the longer that you leave this one.
Take off the heat and season to your liking.
Cook your pasta, according to packet instructions.
When ready to eat, add the mushroom and vegetable sauce to the drained pasta and stir through. Top with a little crumbled feta and / or fresh herbs. And that's it!
