Spicy Tomato Turmeric Slather Sauce Recipe

Ingredients

    • 12 oz spaghetti
    • 2 tbsp olive oil
    • 4 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
    • 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes
    • 1/2 cup kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
    • 2 tbsp capers, drained
    • 1 can (15 oz) red beans, drained and rinsed
    • 4 cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped
    • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
    • 1/4 cup vegan Parmesan cheese (optional)
    • Salt and pepper to taste
    • Spicy Tomato Turmeric Slather Sauce (to taste)

 

Instructions

  1. Cook the Spaghetti:
    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the spaghetti and set aside.
  2. Prepare the Sauce:
    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the diced tomatoes (with their juice), kalamata olives, and capers to the skillet. Stir to combine and let the sauce simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
  3. Add the Red Beans and Spinach:
    Stir in the red beans and chopped spinach. Cook for another 3-5 minutes, or until the spinach is wilted and the beans are heated through. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Combine with Spaghetti:
    Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet, tossing to coat the pasta with the sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add some of the reserved pasta water a little at a time until the desired consistency is reached. Then, add the Spicy Tomato Turmeric Slather Sauce and mix well.
  5. Serve:
    Transfer the spaghetti puttanesca to serving plates. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and vegan Parmesan cheese if using.
  6. Enjoy:
    Serve immediately and enjoy this hearty, flavorful dish.Bon Appétit!
