Cooking Steps

1
  • Boil the kettle. Pour boiled water into a large saucepan over high heat with a pinch of salt.
  • Add fusilli to the boiling water and cook, over a high heat, until ā€˜al dente’, 11 minutes.
  • Reserve pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people). Drain fusilli, then return to saucepan.
2
  • Meanwhile, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Cook veggie mince, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 4-5 minutes.
  • Add garlic paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
3
  • Reduce heat to medium, add passata, light cooking cream, stock concentrate and reserved pasta water. Simmer until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. Stir through cooked fusilli. Season to taste.

TIP: Add a splash more pasta water if the sauce looks too thick

4
  • In a medium bowl, combine rocket with a drizzle of olive oil and vinegar. Season.
