Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 oz/300 g sweet potatoes, diced
  • 1 tbsp canola oil
  • 2 tsp soy sauce (or tamari for GF)
  • 7 oz/200 g pasta of your choice, use GF if needed
  • 6 tbsp/50 g fermented black beans, soaked
  • 1.5 tbsp tahini
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp chili flakes
  • 1.5 tbsp vegan butter
  • 34 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2.5 oz/75 g savoy cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 4 tbsp chopped hazelnuts, toasted
  • salt, pepper


Instructions

  1. Place sweet potatoes on a baking tray. Drizzle with canola oil and soy sauce, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake at 350°F/180°C for 20-30 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
  2. Meanwhile prepare pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  3. Drain fermented black beans, reserving 3-4 tablespoons of the soaking water.
  4. In a small bowl whisk together reserved soaking water, tahini, lemon juice, maple syrup, and chili flakes.
  5. In a large pan melt vegan butter. Add garlic and savoy cabbage, and fry for 5-8 minutes, over medium high heat, until cabbage is tender, but still crisp and vibrant green. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
  6. Add baked sweet potato cubes, pasta, the sauce, and fermented black beans to savoy cabbage, and toss to mix well. Season with salt and pepper, if needed.
  7. Serve pasta immediately topped with hazelnuts and extra chili flakes. Enjoy!
