Meaty Tagliatelle Pasta with Zucchini and Yellow Squash for Summer

Preparation

  Start with mixing 200g VeggoFix Meaty Mince with 250ml water. Add the mixture to a hot pan with 3 tbsp of olive oil. Spread it out as flat as you can so you get maximum browning. Let it fry on one side for 6-8 minutes at a medium-high temperature. Do not forget to start boiling the water for the tagliatelle!

While VeggoFix Meaty Mince is browning and the water is getting to a boil, you can start chopping the onion, bell pepper, zucchini and the yellow squash. There is no need to cut these veggies super finely. Slice the zucchini and yellow squash in two over their length and then again so you end up with 4 lengthy parts each. Then cut slices from those to save time and effort.

As you turn over the mince, after around 6 to 8 minutes, you can add in the chopped onion. Go ahead and put a lid on the pan to make the onions cook faster. Do not worry about pieces that stick to your pan. These pieces will come off effortlessly after you add the sauce.

This is also a good time to add the tagliatelle to the boiling water, unless you are using fresh pasta. Most dried pasta takes 8 to 10 minutes to cook. Fresh pasta takes much less time. 

  After a few minutes the onion should be getting a bit translucent. This is the perfect time to add the bell pepper, zucchini, squash, tomato passata, salt, pepper, oregano, sage, maghiran and basil. Let all that cook for 6 minutes. After that the tagliatelle should be done and you can serve your pasta topped with grated (vegan) cheese or fried onion and a few leaves of basil as decoration.
