How to Make Vegan Mushroom Pasta
This recipe is just as easy to make as it is full of delicious flavours! First, let's start by preparing your pasta according to the packaging instructions. Whilst the pasta is boiling, stop preparing your ingredients.
Place the sliced chestnut mushrooms into a large skillet. Make sure that the skillet is dry and no oil is added to it. Don't worry your mushrooms will not burn, but a dry skillet forced them to release all of the moisture. Cook your mushrooms on high heat for about 10 minutes until they've released all their liquid and the majority of it has evaporated from the pan. Add the finely diced onions and fry until softened, then add the crushed garlic and fresh sage leaves.
Pour in the white wine and cook it off for 2-3 minutes.
Sprinkle in the flour then stir in the soya milk. Best use a big whisk to implement the flour and soya milk. Heat the sauce for a few minutes or until it thickens, then remove from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve either on top of your pasta or mix your pasta into the sauce to evenly coat, then serve up!

A lot of wines and other alcoholic beverages nowadays are actually clearly labelled, so definitely make sure to check the back of the label. The website is definitely great to find out if something is vegan or not though not all supermarket brands are listed on there.
For the flavours of this recipe, it is best to use brown chestnut mushrooms. However, if you don't have access to brown chestnut mushrooms you can alternatively also use white button mushrooms. The flavour will however vary and I definitely recommend going with chestnut mushrooms for best results.
