3. Heat the pan over medium head and add in olive oil. Add in the chopped onions, garlic and leeks. Sprinkle with some salt. Cook them for 3 minutes over medium-high heat. Add in the mushrooms and sprinkle with salt. Sauté them for 5 minutes over medium heat or until the onion have softened and turned lightly brown.
4. Sprinkle on the flour and cook for another minute. Add in plant based milk. Simmer for 2 minutes. Dissolve in the miso paste and splash in the soy sauce. Remove from heat immediately.

・Red miso is not recommended for this recipe.
・Sauté vegetables until they have softened and are flavorful. This is a key step for this recipe!
・Remove from heat immediately after you add in the miso paste and soy sauce to preserve the aroma.
・If you pasta sauce is too thick then thin it out by adding in some pasta water.
・You can add in salmon or chicken if you are not vegan. Other vegetables like carrots, broccoli and corn are great option for kids!
<Storage time>
Store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
