Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Finely chop garlic. Thinly slice button mushrooms. • In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients), stirring, until golden brown, 3 minutes. Add 1/2 the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and season to taste.
• Half-fill medium saucepan with boiling water. Cook plant-based mushroom ravioli over a high heat until 'al dente', 3 minutes. Reserve some pasta water (1/2 cup for 2 people / 1 cup for 4 people). Drain and return ravioli to the saucepan. • Wipe out the frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook mushrooms until softened, 5-6 minutes. Add herb & mushroom seasoning and remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Add crushed & sieved tomatoes (see ingredients) and some pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people) and cook until slightly reduced, 2-3 minutes. • Add cooked ravioli, plant-based butter, the brown sugar and plant-based basil pesto to the sauce and gently stir to combine. Season to taste.
TIP: Add a splash more water if the ravioli mixture looks too thick.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop tomato. In a large bowl, combine a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Add tomato and mixed salad leaves. Season and toss to coat. • Divide pesto, tomato and mushroom ravioli between bowls. Top with garlic pangrattato. • Serve with balsamic salad. Enjoy!
