Vegane Bolognese mit Zuccininudeln
Who says you need pasta to enjoy a delicious spaghetti bolognese? Not me, that’s for sure! This vegan version with zucchini noodles is just as satisfying and way healthier. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 2 zucchini
- 1 onion
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 can of diced tomatoes
- 1 tsp dried basil
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 cup soy curls
- Salt, pepper, and olive oil to taste
To make the bolognese, start by rehydrating the soy curls by soaking them in hot water for 10 minutes. In a pan, sauté the diced onion and garlic in some olive oil until softened. Add in the rehydrated soy curls and spices, and cook for a few minutes. Pour in the diced tomatoes and let simmer for 10-15 minutes. Meanwhile, use a spiralizer or julienne peeler to turn the zucchini into noodles. Once the bolognese is done, serve over the zucchini noodles and enjoy!
