Mac 'n' cheese with a twist - these macaroni contain no cheese at all! Instead, pumpkin, yeast flakes and, for that extra special umami hit, Kikkoman Soy Sauce are used - a vegan alternative that doesn't compromise on taste.

Preparation

Step 1

Heat the oil in a pan. Sauté the onion for approx. 2 minutes. Add the garlic and fry for approx. 1 minute. Add the diced pumpkin, cashews, coconut milk, yeast flakes, Kikkoman Soy Sauce and paprika powder. Cover and cook over a medium heat for about 15 minutes until the pumpkin is cooked through. Purée for at least 4 minutes until the sauce is silky smooth.

Cook the pasta for about 5 minutes and add to the hot, cooked sauce.

Step 3

Serve the noodles on a plate and sprinkle with the finely chopped chives.

Tip:

Purée the sauce in a high-speed blender to achieve a finely blended consistency. For an even smoother result, strain the sauce through a sieve.
