Ingredients

2 cups ratatouille (leftover) (or make fresh ratatouille)
170 g spaghetti boiled according to packet instructions (use more as desired)
Handful Vegan Cheddar cheese grated, handful (or regular cheddar cheese based on preference)

Instructions

Add boiling water and spaghetti into a pan and boil according to instructions, until cooked and ‘al dente’. While boiling the spaghetti, heat the desired amount of ratatouille (so it is hot whilst serving with spaghetti).
Once the spaghetti has boiled, drain using a colander and mix with the hot ratatouille sauce. Immediately sprinkle with grated cheddar cheese, to allow the cheese to melt into the spaghetti. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Cook the spaghetti so it is just right or ‘al dente’ – each spaghetti pack has its own cooking instructions, I recommend monitoring the spaghetti so it is cooked to the perfect consistency (rather than overcooked). The phrase ‘al dente’ is the Italian phrase for ‘to the tooth’ and is used to describe the perfect consistency of pasta when cooked. Once boiled, drain the spaghetti using a colander (this stops the spaghetti from continuing to cook in the hot water, even when the heat is switched off).
Serve immediately – there is nothing better than freshly made (and served) spaghetti – which is why I highly recommend serving this dish immediately. Only boil the spaghetti and heat the ratatouille when you are ready to serve this dish for maximum taste and freshness!
Sprinkle cheese immediately – to allow the cheese to melt into the spaghetti I recommend sprinkling the cheese immediately after mixing the Ratatouille with the spaghetti. Alternatively, you can add the sauce on top of the spaghetti and sprinkle the cheese immediately – then mix together (to mix the cheese with the sauce and spaghetti) – both ways you get a wonderfully decadent and hearty meal!
Storage – this dish is best served immediately, however you can make the ratatouille in advance and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 day.
