Bolognese sauce is a staple of vegetarian cooking in general, and of Italian vegetarian cuisine in particular.

Its main ingredient is fine textured soy protein, which is ideal to replace minced meat in conventional dishes, and allows us to benefit from its absence of cholesterol, and its high protein content and very low fat content.

Soy has a perfect texture and absorbs flavors very well, so thanks to all the ingredients that this recipe carries, the final result is a full-bodied taste and absolutely delicious.

This sauce is rich in proteins , fiber , complex carbohydrates , beta-carotene , lycopene , glutathione (antioxidant), vitamins A , C , E and group B ( B3 , B6 and B9 or folic acid ), calcium , phosphorus , magnesium , potassium and selenium

Notes

You can substitute canned tomatoes for pear tomatoes, because although they are more acidic, they are less acidic than other types of natural tomatoes.

If when you taste the sauce, you still find it somewhat sour, you can add a little more sugar.

You can sprinkle a little vegan Parmesan on top to accentuate the flavor and create a delicious contrast.

Step 1
We put the soy in a bowl with warm water for about 15 minutes to hydrate.
Step 2
We wash and peel the carrot and grate it together with the onion and the garlic.
Step 3
In a large pan, put to heat the oil. When it is hot, we toss the onion with the garlic, we refrigate 5 minutes and stir.

Step 4
Next, we toss the grated carrot with the laurel leaf, leaving it to low fire so that it does not burn during 5 minutes more.
Step 5
Drain the soybeans and add to the pan, take a few turns and take the pepper, nutmeg and salt. We remove and leave 5 minutes to take the taste well.
Step 6
Next, we crush the tomatoes (if they are natural we grate them), we toss them in the pan, and we throw the sugar to remove the acrimony. We stir again to mix everything and leave about 15 or 20 minutes on low heat so that the tomato is done well. When we see that the tomato is made, we will have the Bolognese sauce ready to serve.
