Ingredients
- Onion: 1 medium, finely chopped, for a sweet and savory base.
- Garlic: 3 cloves, minced, adding depth and aroma.
- Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons, for sautéing the vegetables.
- Impossible Meat: 1 package, providing a hearty, meat-like texture.
- Oat Milk: 2 cups, for a creamy, dairy-free sauce.
- Mushrooms: 2 cups, sliced, offering an earthy flavor.
- Worcestershire Sauce: 2 tablespoons, adding a tangy, umami kick.
- Soy Sauce: 1 tablespoon, enhancing the savory profile.
- Seasonings: Salt, pepper, and a pinch of paprika, for a well-rounded flavor.
- Fettuccine: 12 ounces, cooked al dente, to soak up the delicious sauce.
Instructions
- Step 1: cook pasta in a large pot of boiling water on high heat for 12 minutes. Drain & set aside. Remember to keep stirring to avoid noodles from sticking.
- Saute aromatics, add in vegan meat. Season as you go.
- Step 3: stir in mushrooms, season with Worcestershire and soy sauce., I added a little Otafuku tonkatsu sauce as well.
- Step 4: srinkle flour, add your liquids and stir even more.
Hint: Reserve some pasta water when draining the fettuccine. If the sauce becomes too thick, you can add a splash of the pasta water to adjust the consistency.
Keep stirring when cooking fettuccine, wider noodles have a tendency to stick to each other.
Steps
- Sauté the Aromatics: In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Cook the Impossible Meat: Add the Impossible Meat to the skillet, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned and heated through, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the Mushrooms: Stir in the sliced mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and begin to brown, about 5 minutes.
- Create the Sauce: Reduce the heat to medium and sprinkle the flour over the mixture. Stir continuously for 1-2 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste. Gradually whisk in the oat milk, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
- Cook the Pasta: Add the fettuccine to the skillet, stirring to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the pasta is heated through and well coated with the creamy sauce.
- Season and Serve: Season with salt, pepper, and paprika to taste. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
Variations
- Use Different Pasta: Swap fettuccine for penne, rotini, or any pasta of your choice.
- Add Veggies: Incorporate spinach, bell peppers, or zucchini for added nutrition and color.
- Spicy Kick: Add red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce for some heat.
- Herby Twist: Stir in fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary for an aromatic touch.
- Mushroom Medley: Use a mix of mushrooms such as cremini, shiitake, or portobello for varied textures.
- Creamy Boost: Add a dollop of vegan sour cream or cashew cream for extra creaminess.
Substitutions
- Oat Milk: Substitute with almond milk, soy milk, or any plant-based milk you prefer.
- Olive Oil: Use coconut oil or avocado oil instead.
- Impossible Meat: Replace with another brand of plant-based ground meat or lentils.
- Worcestershire Sauce: Use tamari or liquid aminos for a gluten-free option.
- Fettuccine: Try gluten-free pasta or whole wheat pasta for a different texture.

EQUIPMENT

- Pine Nut Grinder: If using whole pine nuts for garnish, a grinder can help crush them into smaller pieces before sprinkling over the finished dish.
Storage
Storing your Vegan One-Pot Ground Beef Stroganoff properly ensures it remains delicious for later enjoyment. Here are some tips on how to store it:
