Method

1. Rehydrate the soy chunks in boiling water for 10 minutes, then drain and squeeze out all excess liquid.
2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pea pasta according to the package directions.
3. Dice the tempeh into small cubes and slice the spring onion and zucchini thinly.
4. In a non-stick pan, heat half the olive oil and sauté the tempeh cubes over medium-high heat until golden and crispy.
5. Remove the tempeh and use the remaining oil to cook the spring onion, zucchini, and rehydrated soy chunks.
6. Stir in the tomato paste, turmeric, and a ladle of pasta water to create a thick, flavorful ragu.
7. Drain the pasta al dente and toss it into the pan with the soy ragu, mixing well to coat.
8. Serve the pasta topped with the crispy tempeh cubes for extra texture.

Tips

• Squeezing the soy chunks thoroughly is essential so they can absorb the flavors of the turmeric ragu.
• This dish stays fresh in the fridge for up to 2 days; reheat in a pan with a splash of water.
