# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Place dehydrated soy curls in a bowl and cover with hot water. Soak for 8 to 10 minutes until softened, then drain and squeeze out excess water using a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth.
02 -
Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large sauté pan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add soy curls and season with ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper, and garlic powder. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes until golden brown and slightly crispy, then transfer to a plate.
03 -
In the same pan, add remaining olive oil. Sauté diced onion, minced garlic, and mushrooms for 6 to 8 minutes until moisture is released and mushrooms start to brown.
04 -
Sprinkle flour over mushroom mixture and stir to coat. Gradually add broth, nondairy milk, and marsala wine, stirring to avoid clumps. Season with remaining salt and pepper. Add uncooked pasta and thyme, stir well, bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 12 to 15 minutes until pasta is tender.
05 -
Uncover and stir in vegan parmesan until melted and creamy. Return crispy soy curls to the pot and stir to combine.
06 -
Garnish with fresh parsley and extra vegan parmesan. Serve immediately.
# Extra Tips:
01 -
Sautéing the soy curls before combining adds a satisfying texture.
02 -
Use dry marsala wine for best flavor balance and avoid overly sweet results.
03 -
Adjust sauce thickness with additional broth or nondairy milk if needed.
04 -
Check pasta for doneness a couple of minutes before end time to prevent overcooking.
05 -
