Roasted Aubergine & Spicy Harissa Pasta Sauce
Best Paired with: Fusilli and Farfalle
For those who crave a bit of heat, our Roasted Aubergine & Spicy Harissa Pasta Sauce is your go-to. This vibrant sauce combines roasted aubergine, red pepper, onion, and tomato with a bold touch of Tunisian harissa. It's vegan, without any added sugars or artificial ingredients, perfect for a quick yet satisfying meal.
Why Fusilli and Farfalle?
These pasta shapes are perfect for capturing the sauce’s chunky, spicy goodness. The spirals of fusilli and the butterfly shape of farfalle are excellent at holding the sauce, making every bite a burst of flavour.
Plant-Based Chorizo & Smoky Red Peppers
Best Paired with: Penne and Rigatoni
Our Plant-Based Chorizo & Smoky Red Peppers sauce is perfect for those looking to cut down on meat without sacrificing flavour. This plant-based sauce swaps traditional chorizo for a flavourful soy-based version, complemented by the smoky depth of roasted red peppers.
Why Penne and Rigatoni?
These pasta shapes are ideal for thick, hearty sauces like this one. The tubes and ridges of penne and rigatoni help hold onto the sauce, ensuring you get a good balance of pasta and sauce in every forkful.
Wild Mushroom & Truffle Oil Pesto
Best Paired with: Tagliatelle and Pappardelle
Indulge in a truly luxurious pasta experience with our Wild Mushroom & Truffle Oil Pesto. This sauce features a mix of five different wild mushrooms, including chanterelle and porcini, all enhanced by the rich, earthy notes of black truffle oil.
Why Tagliatelle and Pappardelle?
Broad and flat, these pasta shapes are perfect for absorbing the rich, creamy sauce. They provide a generous surface area that’s great for capturing the deep flavours of the mushrooms and truffle oil, making every mouthful delicious.
