Prep time: 50 min

Ingredients
1 pack (200g) pack of our Organic Tempeh
4 crushed garlic cloves
1 small finely sliced red onion
200g finely sliced carrots
200g finely sliced mushrooms
20ml olive oil (or rapeseed oil)
400g your favourite tomato and basil pasta sauce
150-225g spaghetti
50g grated parmesan of your choice (optional)
40g chopped basil (optional)
instructions
Prepare the garlic, red onion, carrots, mushrooms and basil.
In a frying pan, heat 10ml of the oil.
Add in the garlic and red onions and cook them for 3 minutes.
Add in the carrots and mushrooms and cook them for a further 7 minutes.
As these are cooking, in a large saucepan, heat another 10ml of oil.
Use your blender (or cheese grater) to turn the block of Organic Tempeh into a mince.
Add in the tempeh mince to this saucepan and mix frequently for about 5 minutes, to ensure it doesn’t catch.
Reduce the heat, then add the garlic, onion, carrots and mushrooms mixture to the mince, followed by the pasta sauce, continuing to mix them together for 10 mins. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
While mixing, start preparing the spaghetti.
Once the spaghetti is ready, plate it all up.
Top with parmesan and chopped basil (optional).
