VEGAN CREAMY LEMON ASPARAGUS PASTA RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Vegan Creamy Lemon Asparagus Pasta Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by ruthg

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 bunch asparagus, trimmed and washed, about 12-ounces
sea salt and black pepper to taste
2 lemons, 1 lemon cut into slices, juice of half of 1 lemon, 1/2 of a lemon cut into wedges, divided
3 1/2 olive oil, divided, plus more to taste
3 to 4 large cloves garlic, minced, about 2 tablespoons
about 5 cups bow tie pasta, see notes if gluten-free
2 1/2 cups unsweetened plain almond milk
3 to 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour, substitute another thickener like cornstarch if gluten-free
1 to 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Add asparagus to a baking sheet and toss with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil and a pinch each salt and black pepper. Top with several thin slices of lemon and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Once finished cooking, remove from oven and roughly chop into thirds. In the meantime, bring a pot of water to a boil and salt generously. While the water's heating, bring a large skillet to medium heat. Once hot, add 3 tablespoons olive oil and the garlic. Whisk and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes or until garlic is just starting to brown. Add 3 tablespoons flour and whisk. Cook for 30 seconds, then whisk in almond milk, a 1/2 cup at a time. Use a large flat spatula to smash down the bits of garlic and flour to properly incorporate. Add a healthy pinch salt and black pepper and whisk. Slightly lower heat and continue cooking to thicken, stirring occasionally. Add pasta to boiling water and cook according to package instructions. Then drain and set aside. For extra creamy sauce, add sauce to a blender or use an immersion blender to blend. Add nutritional yeast and another pinch of salt and black pepper. If it looks runny, add another tablespoon of flour or cornstarch. Blend until creamy and smooth, using the "puree" or "liquify" setting if possible. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, then add back to pan and continue cooking over medium to medium-low heat to thicken. Once your sauce has reached the desired thickness, add the juice of half a lemon and stir. Add 3/4 of the chopped asparagus and the cooked pasta to the sauce and toss to coat. Divide between 2 to 3 serving plates and top with remaining asparagus. Serve with a lemon wedge and vegan parmesan cheese. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2 or 3 days. NOTES: To keep this recipe gluten-free, use gluten-free pasta and sub the flour with cornstarch or another thickener of choice. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons during the blending process to make sure it's completely blended. Then add back to the pan to thicken for 5 to 7 minutes. Alternatively, make a slurry with the cornstarch and a few tablespoons of the sauce in a small bowl and then whisk it directly into the pan during the simmering process. Repeat in 1/2 tablespoon amounts until desired consistency is reached.

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil for the pasta.Tip: Don’t use too much water, otherwise the pasta water won’t be very starchy. I recommend about 9 cups (~2.1 L) of water for 10 to 12 ounces of pasta. Once the water is nearly boiling, add a generous amount of salt (2 to 3 teaspoons of kosher salt).Add the pasta and once it returns to a boil, cook according to the package directions, stirring occasionally, until just al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving 1 cup of the pasta cooking liquid.
  • Zest the lemons and divide the zest into two piles (you'll get about 1 tablespoon zest per lemon). Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, make the Lemon Sauce. Add the juice from both lemons (about 6 tablespoons) to a mason jar. Add ¼ cup (56g) extra virgin olive oil, Dijon mustard, and season with 1 teaspoon kosher salt and black pepper to taste. Shake until emulsified.No jar? Just whisk all the ingredients in a bowl until emulsified.
  • Cook the asparagus. Meanwhile, heat 1 ½ tablespoons extra virgin olive oil in a 12-inch sauté pan or Dutch oven over medium heat. Once warmed, add the shallots and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the garlic is just golden, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Add the red pepper flakes (if using) and cook for 30 seconds. Add the asparagus pieces and one half of the lemon zest. Season with a few pinches of salt and pepper. Cook for 3 minutes until the asparagus is crisp-tender. Remove from heat and set the pan aside until the pasta is done.

  • Cook the pasta in a big pot of well salted water until just al dente. I usually cook it for a few minutes shy of what it says on the box.
  • Drop the asparagus in for the last minute of cooking. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking water.
  • Meanwhile pour the cream into a skillet with deep sides (big enough to hold the finished pasta) and bring to a simmer. Add the lemon juice, zest, and salt.
  • Add the butter, a tablespoon at a time, to the sauce, and stir to melt it. Taste to adjust the salt or the lemon juice.
