Recipe for Vegan Truffle Pasta
I made this vegan truffle pasta recipe super easy & quick for you to make in 10 mins so you don’t have to spend too much time in the kitchen.
Did you know most truffle sauce isn’t vegan?
Typically, truffle sauce is not vegan as it contains anchovies mixed with the blend of herbs and truffle oil, which helps to create that musky flavour. This recipe will show you how to make vegan truffle pasta with a creamy truffle sauce!
If you want to mimic a traditional truffle sauce, you’ll need truffle oil, but I also highly recommend buying truffle salt or truffle seasoning to sprinkle on top of your truffle pasta! It’s so good!
My pasta sauce can also be used as a ‘cream of mushroom’ for any recipe you want to make! You also don’t necessarily have to have truffle seasoning on top of pasta but highly recommend.
This pasta is so easy to make and you can customize it to your own preference, as it is simple with minimal ingredients. You can also add other ingredients that you like with the mushrooms and even tofu or meat alternative for extra protein.
Feel free to add in more truffle as desired!
The recipe is vegan and has options to make it soy-free, nut-free and gluten-free using GF pasta & flour
Ingredients for Creamy Truffle Pasta (Vegan)
- Pasta of choice (use gluten-free if desired)
- Truffle Oil
- Olive Oil or Vegan butter
- Garlic
- Onion
- Mushrooms
- Flour
- Non-dairy milk (unsweetened)
- Vegetable bouillon cube (or vegetable stock)
- Truffle Salt / Truffle Seasoning (optional)
How To Make Vegan Truffle Pasta
1. Start by boiling your pasta as instructed (al dente – about 1-2 minutes before the recommended cooking time), and in the meantime mince your garlic and dice your onions and mushrooms.
2. Next, heat a frying pan with olive oil or vegan butter, and add in the onions and minced garlic, letting them cook for 1-2 minutes. Then, add the diced mushrooms to the frying pan, and let them cook for a few minutes until they begin to sweat and shrink. Then set to the side in a bowl.
3. Add more oil or vegan butter to the frying pan, and mix together flour to create a roux. Slowly add in non-dairy milk (unsweetened) while mixing (using a whisk can help). As you keep adding the non-dairy milk, it will start to form a creamy sauce. Continue to mix to get rid of clumps while adding the non-dairy milk.
4. After the sauce has been formed, add back the mushrooms, onions and minced garlic that was set to the side. Let the sauce thicken, and add the vegetable bouillon (crumble with your fingers) or vegetable broth and mix together.
5. Once pasta is almost done cooking (about 1-2 minutes before the recommended time), strain and add into the pan to mix with the sauce. Cook the pasta with the sauce for 1-2 minutes or until the pasta is completely cooked and immersed in the sauce.
6. Turn off the heat and add in the truffle oil and/or truffle salt seasoning (can omit if needed). Add salt & pepper to your preference, and garnish with parsley. Enjoy!
