My simple but yummy vegetarian carbonara
I have been wanting to eat carbonara for months and whenever I asked my husband he always says that it contains pork which I don’t eat. One time I badly wanted to buy a cheesy carbonara I saw in Lidl but I put it back on the shelf. Finally, today I made my own version of carbonara or white sauce which I made for the first time and you know what? It was absolutely fantastic. My husband who is an Italian loved it and finished one big bowl of it. He even asked me to make more pasta because there was so much sauce left and he wanted to finish it. I couldn’t be any happier.
So here’s my ingredients:
Cream of celery soup
250 ml of Soy milk
Mushroom
1 big onion
Garlic
Olive Oil
A pinch of salt
Cut the mushroom thinly to cook easily. Basically, you have to sauté the garlic, onion, and mushroom and add a pinch of salt. When the mushroom is half-cooked add the soya milk and the cream of celery. Let it boil and simmer until the sauce becomes a little thicker constantly stirring so it won’t stick in the pan.
Well, this was not my carbonara but it was almost similar because it’s got the mushroom too. And for the pasta I used fetucini. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to photograph my carbonara because we were too hungry we couldn’t wait to eat.
