Fettucini Alfredo fucking rules. I use an very expensive blender I stole from work for this, you'll need that or a decent food processor, something that can make solids liquid.
Set your oven to 420 blaze it. Chop up a cauliflower, some white onion and garlic. Toss them on a sheet pan, apply like, a lot of oil and make sure it's all goopy. Add salt, pepper, thyme, oregano and a bit of paprika and roast it for like an hour or so, check it every once in a while and mix em around. You should be able to easily pierce the cauliflower with a butter knife.
Haul that mixture in your blender/food processor add a hefty portion of nutritional yeast and give in a long solid blast until you get a paste, add your preferred vegan milk as needed until you have your preferred texture.
Great for pastas and also makes a good pizza sauce. You can also add some tomatoes to your baking stage and a bit of red wine on the blend and get a good approximation of a rosee.

oooo this sounds intriguing. do you know if it'll still work with, like, a modest amount of oil? or is the tons of oil basically necessary to achieve the artery-clogging deliciousness of Alfredo sauce?
I think it would be hard to cut the oil, cause that's how you get a goop from it. You could maybe try steaming the veg for a bit before roasting and then using less oil perhaps.
no worries. I'm just forever chasing the elusive holy grail of "healthy but tastes like it's not". Like, I like healthy foods. But anyone who says they taste as good as unhealthy foods is full of it.
Good fucking luck, homie.
:rat-salute: if I find it, I'll let you know, haha.
Been a cook for too long. I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Pans on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched salt-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser fries. All those moments will be lost in time, like oils in the more oils. Time to fry
Have you met my lord and savior, Ipomoea Batatas?
ha! that's a good point! I guess I wasn't thinking about sweet foods. Mango and peaches also definitely taste like something that can't possibly be healthy. I do love sweet potatoes too, but I always struggle to get the texture right, whether I'm mashing them or roasting them. I don't like when they get stringy.
So I make a cauliflower alfredo pretty often, but I've never baked the cauliflower. What I do is simmer it in plant milk and then toss it in a blender. You could do that entirely without oil if you like, but it won't taste as good as if you toss in an ass-load of vegan butter, which is what I do.
