To celebrate our new Sunflower Chunks product we have created a simple recipe. Sunflower Chunks are made only from the leftover husks created during the manufacture of sunflower oil. For more information see our blog post here.

Makes 4 portions, but can easily be factored up or down.

2 tbsp chilli oil *
1/2 bag frozen peas*
200g Sunflower Chunks *
Your favourite pasta sauce, bought or home made
Seasonal vegetables chopped as needed
OH so grate not cheese (parmasan style vegan cheese) amount to liking*

Method

Soak the sunflower chunks in hot water for 10 mins.
Cook the pasta in plenty of water for 6-9 mins until al dente to taste.
If any of your seasonal vegetables that need boiling add to pasta water at appropriate time.
Drain sunflower chunks, coat with chilli oil. Fry off for 5 mins until crispy. Remove from pan.
