Here is my Youtube video: https://youtu.be/uQqXVFkbqTk

Not kidding folks: this is the best Vegan Ragu' recipe you'll find online.

And it's an Italian telling you this, so you can trust me (lol).

It is basically the same traditional recipe but with the soy mince instead of the meat mince.

That's it.

Easy, simple, basic and the taste is something UNBELIEVABLE.

Let's see how it is done.

INGREDIENTS (for about 5/6 people):

- 200 gr of dried soy mince (TVP mince);

- 1 lt of tomato passata;

- 2 stalks of celery, finely chopped;

- 1 carrot, finely chopped;

- 1 onion, finely chopped;

- 4 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil;

- 200 ml of white wine;

- 2 bay leaves;

- salt + 1 tsp for the water where we will cook the mince;

- pepper

How to:

- in a pan, put some water to boil. This will be used to boil the dried soy mince. Once the water boils, add 1 tsp of salt and the mice, and leave it to boil for about 10 minutes.

Once the 10 minutes have passed, dry the mince and put it on the side to use later;

- in another big pan, add the extra virgin olive oil and, when hot, throw in carrots/celery/onions to cook for about 5 minutes, stirring continuously;

- after 5 minutes, add the mince to the soffritto (aka the carrots/celery/onions mix in the pan)and the bay leaves. Stir it well;

- add the wine and let it evaporate with the flame on "high" and keep on stirring;

- now cover with the tomato passata, lower the flame to "low" add salt and pepper to taste and leave it to cook with the lid on for 50/60 minutes, checking every 10/15 minutes to stir to avoid burning this deliciousness;

- that's it, easy peasy lemon squeezy. Now you can use this unbelievable ragu' for lasagne, pasta, anything you'd like to use it for! You can even put it in sterelized glass jars and freeze it to have it ready when you need it!

Enjoy!

Peace and Rebel!
