Gluten-Free, Vegan Brown Rice Spaghetti with Garlic Mushrooms

May 21, 2025

Gluten-Free, Vegan Brown Rice Spaghetti with Garlic Mushrooms

 

This dish is so delicious, I could eat it every day. Seriously.

Easy to make, ready in minutes, nourishing and vegan too, why don’t you give it a whirl.

I know you will love it!

vegan brown rice spaghetti with garlic mushrooms

Ingredients:

Serves 4

  • 300g brown rice spaghetti (we like Doves Farm)
  • 1 organic vegetable stock cube
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • sprinkle of oregano
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 250g pack closed cup/ chestnut mushroom, thickly sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 1⁄2 red and green chilli, deseeded and finely sliced
  • sea salt and freshly ground pepper
  • small bunch parsley, leaves only

brown rice spaghetti

 

Method:

Bowl the rice spaghetti as per the packet instructions in boiling water. Add the stock cube to offer some flavour and depth. Towards the end of cooking start the sauce which is quick to cook.

In a large frying pan, add the oil. Place the mushrooms in and sprinkle with oregano. Fry until they are golden brown and crispy. Add the garlic which cooks quicker and let that turn golden too. Garlic sweetens when cooked this way.

When the pasta is al dente (or how you like it, drain retaining a little stock for the finished dish).

Once the mushrooms are crispy, throw in the chillies and stir.

Plate up and season with salt and pepper and garnish with parsley.

Delicious!

More about my book: 
20 classic Greek myths retold in an accessible and engaging way, as part of the Scholastic Classics collection which introduces new generations to timeless stories.
* Familiar favourites within as well as less well-known stories.
* Ranging from The Midas Touch and The Fall of Icarus to the tragic story of Persephone and brave female warriors in The Tale of Atalanta. 
* Great for kids who are learning about Greek mythology at school, but also fun for those who aren’t familiar with the myths.
* Each story has a little introduction with fun fact and ends with a moral of the myth section which tells the reader about where the story may have originated from, helping to give informative, child-friendly historical context.

13 today 🎈! The one where Alexander (Xander to 13 today 🎈! The one where Alexander (Xander to us, Alex to his friends) turned into a teenager! Football superstar, mental maths whizz, longtime linguaphile (he’s learning Japanese, French and Greek currently), shy but determined, he loves nothing more than winding up his siblings and scoring goals ⚽️ but he’s a young man with an undeniably big heart. Giver of sound advice (the family philosopher), teller of genuinely funny jokes (Dad, take note) and provider of the most warm and comforting hugs (Florence, take note), to truly know Xander, is to be wholly lucky in this life. Happy birthday to my middle child, my sweet, smart and loving sun-shine🌟. My loyal Pegasus, I love you!

My first virtual book tour assembly with @scholast My first virtual book tour assembly with @scholastic_uk saw 190 primary schools and over 6000 children (and counting, as more are due to watch on play back), sign up and tune into my live power point presentation, book reading of Arachne (a weaver who was transformed into a spider by the jealous goddess Athena) and educational activities where we collectively created our own myths together and learnt about the history, and legacy of ancient Greece. I was blown away by how engaged the children were and all their questions! My inner child, a prolific reader and writer, was holding back tears by the end! Next week, I set off to meet hundreds of children across the UK in schools on an in-person book tour. What a privilege it is to share my version of these legendary stories. My editor’s feedback was that these are powerful, adventurous, cinematic and egalitarian retellings of the most famous ancient stories in the West. Here, I’m sharing a few photos from a very special second week of celebrations and seeing my book out in the wild! I’ve shared more photos in stories from all your kind support on social media (I can’t keep up, really means a lot) !
