Ingredients

  • 10 oz spaghetti
  • 3 tbsp vegan butter
  • 4 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 1 large bell pepper de-seeded and sliced
  • 1 tbsp chili flakes
  • ¼ cup soy cream
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp thyme dried
  • ¼ cup lemon juice (juice of 1 lemon)
  • ½ cup grated vegan cheese

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Cook the spaghetti for around 10 minutes, until al dente, in well-salted water.
  2. Heat the vegan butter in a large pan over a medium heat. When it melts, add the garlic, and allow it to cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently.
  3. Add a sliced orange bell pepper and red chilli flakes. Cook for 4-5 minutes more, until softened.
  4. Add the soy cream, salt and dried thyme. Stir together well for a couple of minutes, before adding in spaghetti using a pair of kitchen tongs, and pouring in around ½ cup of the pasta cooking water. Toss together until thoroughly combined.
  5. Squeeze in some fresh lemon juice and add vegan cheese, and continue mixing. Serve when the cheese melts.

Notes

  • Feel free to add other vegetables of your choice, depending on personal preference.
