  • STEP 1

    Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and fry the onion with a pinch of salt. When it's soft and just starting to brown, after around 5-6 mins, add the garlic and fry for 1-2 mins until golden and fragrant.

  • STEP 2

    Tip the cooked onions and garlic into a food processor with the spinach, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper, and the tofu. Blend until you have a smooth paste.

  • STEP 3

    Cook the tagliatelle in a large pan of boiling water following pack instructions, then drain and reserve a mugful of the cooking water.

  • STEP 4

    Pour the blended sauce back into the frying pan and heat over a medium heat. Stir in around 200ml of the pasta cooking water to reach your desired consistency of sauce. Stir and bring to a gentle bubble for 1-2 mins until combined. Add the frozen peas and cook in the sauce for for 2-3 mins until tender. Stir the cooked pasta into the sauce.
