  1. BOIL THE VEGGIES

    Place the potato and carrot chunks in a pot of salted water over a high heat. Pop on a lid and bring to the boil. Once boiling, remove the lid and reduce the heat. Simmer for 15-20 minutes until soft and cooked through. On completion, drain the veg, reserving the cooking water and returning it to the pot. Transfer the veg to a blender and set aside. Return the pot of water to a medium-high heat and bring back to the boil for the pasta.

  2. PERFECT Pine Nuts

    Place a large pan (big enough for the pasta and sauce) over a medium heat. When hot, toast the Pine Nuts for 3-5 minutes until golden brown, shifting occasionally. Keep a close eye on them; they burn easily! Remove from the pan on completion and set aside for serving.

  3. BOIL THE ORECCHIETTE

    Pop the pasta into the pot of boiling water and cook for 9-12 minutes until al dente. Taste to test, drain on completion, and toss through some oil to prevent sticking.

  4. MUSHIES & CRISPY ONIONS

    Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the sliced mushrooms and rinsed origanum sprigs for 3-5 minutes until the mushrooms are golden, shifting as they colour. Remove from the pan on completion and season to taste. Keep the pan on the heat and add enough oil to cover the base. When hot, fry the sliced onion for 5-7 minutes until crispy, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to drain on some paper towel.

  5. CREAMY PASTA SAUCE

    While the onions are frying, pour the Coconut Cream into the blender with the carrot and potato. Add in the Cajun Rub (to taste) and Nutritional Yeast and blend until a smooth, thick sauce. When the onions are finished and the pasta is almost ready, wipe down the pan and return it to a low-medium heat. Pour in the sauce and gently simmer for 1-2 minutes. Add the cooked pasta to the pan and toss to coat. Stir through the sautéed mushrooms and three-quarters of the Baby Spinach. Cook for about a minute until the spinach is slightly wilted. Season to taste and remove from the heat on completion.

  6. TIME TO SERVE!

    Spoon a good helping of saucy Orecchiette Pasta into a bowl. Sprinkle with the remaining fresh Baby Spinach, the crispy red onions, and the toasted Pine Nuts. Excellent work, Chef!

Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to drain on some paper towel.
