Notes

  • Using a blender creates a very smooth and almost whipped texture that's so pleasant. But, if you have a larger blender that cannot handle smaller volume like this sauce, then you can also simply combine the ingredients in a bowl (you will have to crush the garlic in this case) and whisk very well until super smooth. Or what I do often is double the recipe and keep the leftover sauce in the fridge for another meal later in the week.
  • Simple roasted mushroom (roast in a pan) with peas (frozen then thawed) pair so well with this sauce. You can also add steamed broccoli, carrot, cauliflower or caramelized onions with this meal.
  • Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days (store better when the sauce is apart from the noodles). To reheat, you might have to add a splash of vegan milk to loosen up the sauce, then reheat in the microwave.
