    September and early October is my favourite time of the year. The days are still warm but the nights are crisp and cold enough to warm yourself under a blanket and light a few candles. During this time I prefer quickly made dishes so I can maximise my leisure time. This creamy chanterelle pasta is made in a few minutes and uses the fresh, peppery taste of the chanterelle in a bechamel sauce.

    I usually cook this shortly after picking my own chanterelles, but you can also find them in the store or farmer's markets. Sprinkle a bit of fresh parsley and my vegan parmesan on top and enjoy this wonderful autumn dish.

    Ingredients
     
     

    • 100 g chanterelles or girolle
    • 160 g tagliatelle or pasta of your choice

    For the sauce:

    • 3 tablespoon vegan butter or any oil you want to use
    • 2 tablespoon all purpose flour
    • 250 ml almond milk
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • ½ teaspoon pepper
    • ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
    • 2 tablespoon nutritional yeast

    Optional:

    • 20 g parsley chopped
    • 1 pinch salt
    • 1 pinch pepper
    Prevent your screen from going dark

    Instructions
     

    • Clean the mushrooms if necessary. Do so by cutting off the base of the stems and brush them lightly if they are gritty. Heat butter in a frying pan and saute for two to three minutes or until they start to become soft. Take them off the heat and proceed with the sauce.

    • Place the vegan butter in a heavy saucepan over medium heat and melt it completely. Add the flour and stir quickly until combined and keep stirring and cooking the flour and oil mix for a few minutes. It will dry out a little bit and resemble dough as you can see in the pictures.

    • Don’t let the mass darken, you want the flour just cooked, not fried.

    • Add the milk a few tablespoons at a time and stir vigorously to soften the mixture and it reaches even consistency. Keep adding and stirring the liquid into the mass a few tablespoons at a time until the milk is incorporated.

    • Don’t be tempted to add all the liquid at once. It will result in a clumpy disaster. Trust me, I’ve tried. You will be left with a thick, creamy mix of flour, vegan butter and almond milk. If you want your sauce thinner add more milk. Add salt, pepper and nutmeg, and stir well. Then add the sauteed mushrooms and nutritional yeast and stir gently until combined.

    • Add to the cooked pasta and mix until evenly covered. Serve immediately and sprinkle with fresh parsley and vegan parmesan sprinkle.

      I made these with dried porcini today for my vegan sister. I had no chanterelle. It was delicious!

      This recipe was good, it took me a while to find it however as these mushrooms are called girolles in France. Thanks from Bourgogne!

      YUM and I bet this would be great with Porcini (Cepes), Morels or Shitake as well.

      Fantastic recipe! Doesn't taste vegan at all and reminded me of a delicious shrimp scampi! HIGHLY RECOMMEND this easy recipe!

      Thank you Gloria for this amazing recipe..🙂 I really loved the milky feeling to it and also the fact that it doesn’t have onion/garlic. The sauce was really good. If I could propose my update, I want to say that we missed some juiciness (just personal feeling :)), so during the eating process I chopped some zuccini slices and fried them in olive oil for few minutes on middle high heat. That gave some crunchy/juicy feeling. And also zuccinis doesn’t have too much taste to overhelm the chanterelles. Thank you one more time for this recipe. All the best 🙏

      Kind of an unfair rating, because I used soy milk, instead of almond milk; however, I don’t think it made a huge difference. It was creamy and delicious! I had some little shiitake mushrooms in it, too. But the Chanterelle mushrooms were the star, and well complimented by the nutmeg. If I come across Chanterelles at the Farmers Market again, I will probably make this again, too. Thank you!
