Vegetarian Green Spelt Bolognese - Hearty, Healthy & Simple
A delicious vegetarian Bolognese made from green spelt is the perfect, nutritious alternative to the classic and brings a breath of fresh air into your kitchen. As a little cat with a fondness for healthy soul food, I love the nutty bite that green spelt – unripe, kiln-dried spelt – brings to this sauce. This dish is not only incredibly quick to make and healthy, but also an absolute treat for those who enjoy conscious eating. The combination of fresh vegetables and the hearty grain makes this vegetarian Bolognese a true highlight that comes completely without meat. Don't worry, it's child's play to prepare: we briefly toast the green spelt, let it simmer gently in an aromatic tomato sauce, and serve it all with a good portion of love. Whether you are an experienced cook or just starting out in the kitchen, this recipe will thrill you. Grab your cooking spoon and let's conjure up something wonderful together – meow!
Ingredients
Preparation
First, dry toast the green spelt meal (60 g) in a pan without fat until it smells wonderfully nutty – watch out gently that it doesn't burn!
Meanwhile, finely dice the onion (1), the carrot (1), and the celery (1).
Heat the olive oil (2 tbsp) in the pan and gently sauté the vegetables over medium heat until translucent.
Now add the tomato paste (1 tbsp) and toast briefly to really awaken the flavors.
Mix the toasted green spelt meal (60 g) in with the vegetables.
Pour in the strained tomatoes (200 ml) and the vegetable broth (150 ml), stir everything well, and fold in the herbs de Provence (1 tsp).
Let it simmer over low heat for about 15 minutes until the green spelt is soft but still has a bite – in the meantime, you can relax and purr!
