250gSpaghetti
150gVegan bacon
1-2tspKala Namak(Himalayan black salt)
1tip of a knifeturmeric powder
2Tbspnutritional yeastin flakes
2TbspVegetable parmesan cheese-facultative-
1cupPasta cooking water

Instructions
Put water on the stove in a pot.
Meanwhile, brown the bacon in a skillet with plenty of seed oil and then set aside. See my "vegan bacon" recipe for more details!
In a bowl put the cream, kala namak, noble yeast, turmeric powder (a knife tip!),
Salt the water for the pasta and throw the pasta into the water that has reached a boil in the meantime. The pasta should cook for only 2-3 minutes.
Put the mixture with the cream in a large frying pan and turn the flame on medium heat.
Keep a cup of the pasta cooking water before you drain the pasta. Then put the pasta while still al dente in the pan with the cream and increase the heat.
Add the cooking water to the pan gradually with the pasta and cream and allow the pasta to "risotto", stirring occasionally and adding water as needed.
When the pasta is cooked and the cream is nice and thick, add the vegetable parmesan (and water if needed)
Add 3/4 of the veg bacon and plate the pasta. Place the remaining bacon on top of the pasta.
