I've included how I make the pasta sauce, alternatively you can use a 500g jar of shop-bought pasta sauce to cut down on the cooking time. For the sausages, I used Wheaty Vegan Hot Dogs, which I felt worked really well. But there are so many different vegan sausages available now, so feel free to use your favourite. For the dairy-free cheese, I chose to use Gouda-style by Sheese, which melts beautifully. But again, there are so many different vegan cheeses out there now, so feel free to use your favourite Yield: Four servings Cook time: 40 minutes You'll need: - One tablespoon of oil
- One small red onion, chopped
- One stick of celery, diced
- One small carrot, diced
- Two cloves of garlic, minced
- One and a half 400g tins of plum tomatoes, blended until smooth
- Half a teaspoon of both basil and oregano
- 300g (this is the dry, uncooked weight) pasta
- 200g meat free sausages, cooked and sliced into pieces
- 100g dairy-free cheese, grated
- Two tablespoons of breadcrumbs
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Method: - Heat the oil in a saucepan over a medium heat, once it's warmed up, add in the onion, celery and carrot. Give the vegetables 10 minutes to cook, stirring every now and then
- Then add garlic and stir it through the vegetables, give it five minutes to cook
- Then add the tomatoes and herbs, pop a lid on the saucepan, and leave the sauce to simmer for 15 minutes
- While the sauce simmers, cook the pasta as per the instructions on the pack. Knock a couple of minutes off the pasta cooking time, as it will continue to cook while it bakes
- Cook the sausages as per the instructions on the pack, then slice into bite-sized pieces
- Once the pasta is cooked, drain away the water, then stir the sauce and sausage pieces through it. Spoon the pasta into a air-fryer safe/oven-safe dish, and top with an even layer of the grated cheese. Finally top with breadcrumbs
- Either air fry at 200°C for ten minutes, or bake in the oven at 200°C/180°C fan assisted for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, and the breadcrumbs have toasted and turned golden brown
- Leave to stand for five minutes before serving
