This unassuming dish is all kinds of rich on all kinds of levels. From the fava bean cream to the cashew cheese to, of course, the powerful truffle aroma … it’s heavenly.
You will need
Serves 2
- 1/2 packet linguine (gluten-free if needed)
- 50g margarine
- 2 garlic cloves, sliced
- 2 tablespoons sake
- 100ml fava bean cream
- Some truffle, thinly sliced

Recipe: Simon Toohey
Directions
-
Step 1
Cook the pasta in a pot of boiling salted water, following packet timing.
-
Step 2
In the meantime, add the margarine to a pan at medium heat, add your garlic cloves, and fry gently, bringing the heat up. Before the garlic starts changing colour, add the sake and fry off the alcohol.
-
Step 3
Add the cream, cheese and majority of the shaved truffle to the pan and mix through.
-
Step 4
Add pasta and some of the pasta cooking water and mix everything together. Plate up and shave a bit more truffle over the top to serve.
Hot tip!
*We like the cashew-based red bell pepper cheese from The Vegan Dairy!
