Courgette Cream Sauce
Versatile courgette white sauce

Adjust based on how many courgettes you have!

  • 4 courgettes, peeled (save peels for other recipes!)
  • Fry 2 small onions + crush and fry 3 cloves garlic (set aside)
  • 300g silken tofu
  • 1 teaspoon miso
  • 1 pint vegetable/ meat-free stock
  • 1/2 teaspoon mustard
  • 3 tablespoons of nutritional yeast

This sauce is so versatile and great to make adjustments for a lasagna white sauce, carbonara etc.

To make a carbonara sauce, add a 1/2 teaspoon of kala nemak and can omit miso, for example!

Here we served with smoked tofu lardons & fried courgettes in fresh thyme.
