Ingredients
- 100 ml vegetable stock
- 1 onion
- 3-4 garlic cloves
- 1 tbsp oil
- 1 tsp butter
- 250 ml dairy-free cream
- 200g pasta of your choice
- 150g cherry tomatoes
- 5-6 sun-dried tomatoes
- 150g white beans
- 1-1,5 tsp oregano, rosemary, basil
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- salt and pepper to taste
- chilli flakes- optional
Instructions
-
Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Before draining reserve a little bit of the pasta water.
-
Start with the base: Heat the oil and butter in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until soft, then stir in the garlic for another minute.
-
Add the tomatoes & herbs: Toss in the cherry tomatoes, sun-dried tomatoes, and your herbs (oregano, rosemary, basil). Let everything cook for a few minutes until the tomatoes soften and the mixture is fragrant.
-
Build the sauce: Stir in the tomato purée and cook for a minute or two to deepen the flavour.
-
Make it creamy: Pour in the vegetable stock and dairy-free cream. Let it simmer gently for a few minutes.
-
Add the rest: Stir in the white beans and spinach, cooking until the spinach wilts and the sauce is creamy.
-
Combine: Add the cooked pasta and toss until evenly coated. If needed, stir in a splash of the reserved pasta water to loosen the sauce.
-
Season & serve: Taste and adjust with salt, pepper, and chilli flakes if you like a bit of heat. Serve warm and enjoy!
