Notes
- If the sauce is too thick, add a bit more oat milk or pasta water until it reaches your desired consistency.
- If the sauce is too thin, cook it for a few minutes longer to allow it to thicken up.
- The pasta will absorb some of the sauce as it sits, so if you have leftovers the next day, you may need to add a bit more oat milk when reheating.
- This pasta is best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat in a pan over medium heat with a splash of oat milk.
- You can also use cashew cream prepared by soaking cashew nuts and blending with other ingredients to get a creamy sauce.
- Sprinkle a generous amount of fresh herbs, black pepper, vegan parmesan cheese, or pepper flakes for extra flavor.
- Serve with a side of toasted garlic bread or a small bowl of soup.
