Raw Spaghetti Meatballs

Ingredients: 1 medium butter squash (for the noodles) 100g walnuts 150g sun-dried tomatoes (either soaked or in oil) 1 tbsp nutritional yeast 1/2 tsp asafoetida (to your taste) 4 tsp italian mixed herbs a handful fresh basil 2 medium tomatoes salt and pepper to taste Directions: Coarsely grind the walnuts so that you get chunky bits rather than a powder. Now blend together the sun-dried tomatoes, the nutritional yeast, the garlic, the herbs, basil and a little salt and pepper if you wish - this should make a firm paste. Take about 3 tablespoons of this paste out for your sauce and add some of the walnuts to this paste to make your meatballs. You might not need all of the walnuts so add them slowly and see how you go. Roll into little meatballs Now for the sauce - blend the tomatoes and your 3 tablespoons of paste and add any salt, pepper, herbs or garlic to your taste. Serve & enjoy! |
