Anna Paul's Viral Turkish Pasta with Quorn

By Jen's Food Blog on March 21, 2025

I was, as usual, late to this Viral party of Anna Paul's Turkish Pasta recipe. But by the time I found out about it, I had just received some Quorn Mince, so I thought this would go perfectly in the recipe instead of pork. This is a fabulous, meat-free alternative that can be cooked in minutes!

Ingredients for 2;

300g Quorn Mince
1 small onion, diced
1 tsp of - cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic granules, curry powder & cumin
1 tbsp tomato paste
150g pasta
1 stock cube (flavour or choice)
100g fat-free Greek yoghurt
2 garlic cloves crushed
Salt & pepper
Fresh parsley
150g cherry tomatoes, halved
30g butter
1 tsp paprika

Method (Approx. 20-25 mins in total), it was as easy as;

Mix your yoghurt, crushed garlic, and some salt together first in a small bowl.
Boil the pasta for 12 - 14 minutes, adding a stock cube - don't drain, you will need the water for the sauce.
Meanwhile, fry the diced onion for 5 mins until soft and add in all the spices, plus the tomato paste.
Chuck in the frozen Quorn Mince as it is, and add in some of the pasta stock water to make a thick sauce consistency. You may need to keep adding this as the mince cooks and absorbs the liquid. Fry for 10 mins.
Melt the butter in a small pan and mix the tsp of paprika in.
Now everything is cooked, plate up starting with the pasta, then the yoghurt, mince, paprika butter, tomatoes & parsley.

We were really impressed with the flavour of this dish and how quick and easy it was to cook, using the Quorn Mince. See my cook with me Instagram reel via this link - https://www.instagram.com/reel/DFkwWxJIj1I/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
