Vegan carbonara sauce
Fancy a pasta, but one that is free of animal products? You do? Then you’re going to love this Biotona variant! Biotona Fung-Immun is a sublime complex of 100% natural and organic powders, based on the mycelia of four medicinal mushrooms. They protect the body against harmful external influences and increase natural resistance. As a result, this vegan carbonara sauce is not just a taste bomb, but also a heart-warming and strengthening dish that is ideal for a cold autumn day.

Necessities |

Deep skillet, blender |
- Clean shiitake mushrooms and cut in small cubes.
- Add mushroom cubes to the skillet, along with oil, smoked paprika and salt. Cook on medium heat until golden brown and slightly crispy on the outside (about 12 minutes), stirring occasionally.
- Add almond milk, tapioca flour, tamari, Biotona Fung-immun, sweet paprika, Biotona Curcuma and black pepper to a blender. Blend shortly, until well combined. Alternatively, you can use an immersion blender.
- Remove half of the mushrooms from the skillet and set aside. Pour milk mixture into the skillet (over the remaining mushrooms) and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce is thick and creamy. Taste the sauce and adjust salt and pepper if needed.
- Add cooked spaghetti to the skillet with the sauce. Toss until well combined, but don’t cook.
- Divide the pasta between 2 plates, top with reserved mushrooms and chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
