Vegan One Pot Creamy Mushroom Pasta Recipe
This Vegan One Pot Creamy Mushroom Pasta brings together sautéed mushrooms, shallots, and garlic simmered with spaghetti in vegetable broth and dairy-free milk. Flavored with rosemary, nutritional yeast, and miso, it creates a creamy, savory sauce without dairy. The pasta finishes with a smooth texture and herbaceous notes, making for a comforting plant-based meal cooked entirely in one pan.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 14 oz mushrooms washed and sliced (400g)
- 2 shallot peeled and diced
- 4 garlic peeled and minced, cloves
- 2 tsp rosemary finely chopped, or thyme
- 3 ⅓ cups vegetable stock or boiling water
- 12 oz spaghetti (350g)
- 2 ½ cups dairy-free milk such as cashew milk
- 2 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 2 tsp white miso
Instructions
- Place a large lidded frying pan over a medium high heat. The pan should be wide enough to fit your spaghetti, without breaking it.
- Add the oil to the pan and fry the mushrooms until lightly golden. This should take 5-6 minutes. You might need to do this in two batches depending on the size of your pan. Once the mushrooms are cooked - add the shallots, garlic and herbs. Cook until the shallots are translucent and the garlic is fragrant, 1-2 minutes, taking care to stir the pan so that the garlic doesn't burn.
- Add the vegetable broth (or water). Add the spaghetti, 2 cups of the dairy-free milk (reserving half a cup), salt, nutritional yeast and miso. Cover the pan and bring it to a boil. Remove the lid, reduce to a simmer and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until the pasta is cooked, stirring every minute or so to make sure the pasta doesn't clump together.
- When the pasta is cooked, remove the pan from the heat, and add the reserved half cup of milk and stir it through. Serve immediately.
Notes
- A mix of button and baby portabella mushrooms adds varied texture and flavor, but any preferred variety works.
- Substitute whole milk if dairy-free is not required for a creamier sauce.
- If using water instead of broth, consider adding extra salt and pepper for seasoning balance.
