The perfect dish for meat free Monday you ask? Our plant-based mince is the ideal substitute for beef mince, working a treat with the basil pesto-laced red sauce. ‘Al dente’ spaghetti brings the two components together and makes sure that none of the delicious sauce goes to waste.

We’ve replaced the spaghetti in this recipe with fettuccine due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!

Cooking Steps

• Half-fill a large saucepan with water. Add a generous pinch of salt, then bring to the boil over high heat. • Cook fettuccine in the boiling water until ‘al dente’, 11 minutes. • Reserve some pasta water (1/3 cup for 2 people / 2/3 cup for 4 people). Drain fettuccine, then return to saucepan.

TIP: ‘Al dente’ pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.

• Thinly slice apple (see ingredients) into wedges. • Roughly chop snacking tomatoes. • Finely chop garlic.

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook plant-based mince, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 4-5 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Add garlic & herb seasoning and garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.

• Add passata, the brown sugar, the plant-based butter and reserved pasta water. Cook until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. • Add plant-based basil pesto and cooked spaghetti. Toss to coat. Season to taste. Remove pan from heat.
