What ingredients will you need?

For the sauce

• 2 cups of natural, flavorless yogurt (400 g)
• ½ cup of white button mushrooms or any kind of mushrooms (125 g)
• 1 spring of parsley
• 1 onion
• 4 cloves of garlic
• ¼ cup of soy sauce (62 ml)
• 1 dash of olive oil

For the pasta

• 1 packet of your preferred pasta brand (500 g)

Preparing a creamier pasta dish without adding cream nor cheese

First step

• Cut the vegetables on a cutting board. Cut the onion and garlic cloves in small cubes.

Second step

• In a medium-sized pot, heat up the olive oil over low heat for about a minute.
• Add the onion and garlic to the pot and sauté.

Third step

• When the vegetables become transparent, add the white button mushrooms (or the other mushrooms if you don’t have the white button variety).
• At the same time, add the soy sauce and cover the pot while it cooks slowly.

Fourth step

• When the vegetables and mushrooms are cooked through, increase the heat to reduce the water that seeps out from the mushrooms.

Fifth step

• Add the yogurt to the mixture, making sure to stir continuously while lowering the heat back down to low. Reducing the heat and stirring will prevent the yogurt from curdling and losing its creaminess.
• When the entire mixture is heated thoroughly, but not overcooked, finish it off with a the special touch by sprinkling on the finely chopped spring of parsley.

Sixth steop

• In a large pot, cook the pasta noodles, making sure to salt the water.
• Once the pasta is al dente, strain the noodles.
• Mix them with the creamy vegetable and mushroom-based sauce and brace yourself to experience a texture and flavor that’ll wow your palate in the next few moments.
