CARROT PASTA SAUCE

Steps:

• Chop the onions well and saute them in a skillet with the oil for about 10 minutes. Add the grated carrots and cook for other 5-8 minutes adding your soy sauce and a few Tablespoons of the pasta water to keep the sauce moist. When ready puree the sauce in a hand blender and put it back in the skillet.
• In the meantime cook the pasta as directed and before draining it save few spoons of its water. Add the pasta to the skillet and mix until well combined. Serve the pasta topped with sunflower seeds, parsley, parmesan cheese and a swirl of olive oil.

CREAMY CARROT PASTA SAUCE

Steps:

• Scrub the carrots and top and tail them. There's no need to peel them unless they're particularly manky.
• Roughly chop then place them in a lidded pan with a good pinch of salt. Cover with water, bring to the boil, then simmer for 10-15 minutes or until just cooked. Use a knife to test for doneness. If it slides in easily, the carrots are cooked.
• Drain the carrots, but reserve the water. Transfer them to a blender with 200 ml of the carrot water.
• Drain the cashew nuts and add to the blender.
• Finally add the wild garlic oil (or garlic, olive oil and salt).
• Blend on high speed until you have a smooth sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add some more of the hot carrot water.
• Whilst the carrots are simmering, cook the pasta in salted water according to pack instructions.
• If using, fry the leeks, onions or shallots in some extra virgin olive oil over a gentle heat.
• As soon as the carrot sauce is ready, drain the pasta. Return it to the pan and mix in the sauce. A fork or tongs are good for this. If the sauce needs loosening, add a little pasta or carrot water until you get your desired consistency.
• Transfer the pasta into individual bowls and top with the fried leeks, onions or shallots.
• Scatter some vegan parmesan over the top along with some parsley.
