absolutely dried tomatoes (south italy ones if you can find them) - they have flavour, texture and crunchiness (after stirred in your frypan with EVO, minced garlic and chili) - you have to slightly burn them (as non-veg do with bacon) and, besides, a sauce of chopped tofu with soy milk, a dash of soy cream,  and turmeric or saffron if you prefer. join after the sun dried tomatoes and then stir spaghetti or penne into the sauce. A good sprinkling of freshly ground pepper and ready! The appearance will be the same as the carbonara "cruel" - and also the taste strikingly similar! - Note: Cut the tomatoes into strips or cubes as they do with the bacon! :-)Annulla modifiche
