Created to celebrate Carbonara Day, this delicious recipe is a more inclusive version of the classic Italian carbonara. We've substituted guanciale for toasted soy, cheese for celeriac, and eggs for creamy mashed potatoes. Along with a team of international chefs, we created this recipe to be halal, kosher, vegan, lactose free and gluten free, so you and many others can enjoy it too!

Ingredients

Serves 4

1 box Barilla Gluten Free Spaghetti pasta
2 sachets saffron
2 1/2 cups russet potatoes (4 medium-sized ones)
1/2 cup crispy soy flakes (or textured vegetable protein)
1 1/2 cups fresh celeriac (or rutabaga)
To taste salt and black pepper
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Method

Step 1

Cook potatoes in salted boiling water; finish cooking; drain and keep aside a little cooking water. Then, mash them in a salad bowl.

Step 2

Heat the oven to 400°F. Take celeriac, peel it and cut it into small cubes, then place on a baking tray and cook for 20 minutes until crispy.

Step 3

Melt saffron in a cup with 100 ml water, whisking until combined.

Step 4

In a bowl, mix the saffron water with the mashed potatoes, then blend well together with some cooking water in a food processor until smooth. Add a sprinkle of pepper.

Step 5

In a non-stick pan, toast the crispy soy flakes with a spoon of olive oil on medium heat for 5 minutes, until golden. In the meantime, blend the celeriac cubes in a food processor until they are crumbled.

Step 6

Cook the Barilla Gluten Free Spaghetti pasta in boiling salted water and drain. Pour into the bowl and stir in the saffron and sauce.

Step 7

Plate on a dish, pouring over the top the crispy soy flakes, the celeriac crumbs and pepper to taste.
