How to Prepare Spicy Mushroom and Walnut Bolognese [Vegan]

  1. Heat up the olive oil in a pot or wide saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onions and garlic and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until the onions become translucent, but not brown.
  3. Add the Cremini mushrooms and cook for 6-8 minutes, during which the mushrooms will release their water.
  4. Once this water has completely evaporated and the mixture is fairly dry, add all the herbs and spices, the apple cider vinegar, and tomato paste. Mix well to ensure the mushrooms are well coated in the spices.
  5. Add the chopped plum tomatoes and the canned peeled tomatoes and mix again.
  6. Allow to cook on medium-low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  7. Add the chopped walnuts and cook for an extra 5 minutes.
  8. Remove from heat and serve with a serving of cooked pasta (use gluten-free pasta if you are intolerant to gluten) and a sprinkle of vegan parmesan cheese.
