Ingredients
- 7.7 oz dry pasta (220 g)
- 1 ½ tbsp oil (from the jar of sun-dried tomatoes)
- ⅓ cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes (from a jar, NOT dry)
- ½ medium yellow onion (finely chopped)
- 4 cloves garlic (finely minced)
- ½ cup vegan cooking cream (Alpro Cooking Oat)
- ½ cup grated vegan parmesan (plus more for serving)
- ½ tsp dried basil
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- ½ tsp red pepper flakes
- 1⁄4 tsp ground black pepper
- ¾ tsp salt (or to taste)
- fresh basil (to garnish) (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water (according to the package instructions) until al dente. Drain the cooked pasta, then rinse with cold water. Return to the now-empty pot.
- Heat the sun-dried tomato oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and garlic and cook until the onions are translucent (about 5-7 minutes).
- Add the vegan cooking cream, sun-dried tomatoes, spices, ground black pepper and salt to the pan and cook for about 2 minutes (while stirring).
- Add the cooked sauce and the vegan parmesan to a blender or food processor and blend until somewhat smooth.
- Reheat the blended sauce in the pan if needed, then add to the pasta and stir to combine.
- Garnish with more chopped sun-dried tomatoes and fresh basil. Serve right away.
