1
Boil a kettle
Peel and finely dice the carrot[s]

2
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with 2 tbsp [3 tbsp]vegetable oil over a medium-high heat
Once hot, add the diced carrot and diced onion with a large pinch of salt
Cook for 5 min or until starting to soften and caramelise
3
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of boiled water with a pinch of salt to the boil
Add the linguine, and cook for 8-10 min or until cooked through but with a slight bite
Once cooked, drain the linguine and reserve approx. 150ml [250ml]starchy cooking water for later

Meanwhile, grate half of the chestnut and button mushrooms and slice the rest
Peel and finely chop (or grate) the garlic
Add both the grated and sliced mushrooms and chopped garlic to the carrot mixture and cook for 5 min
5
Crumble the vegetable stock cube[s] into the softened mushroom mixture
Add the tomato paste, stir for 30 secs, then add the soy sauce, balsamic vinegar and Henderson's Relish
Add 1/2 tsp [1 tsp]sugar and season generously with pepper
Stir constantly until the mixture is evenly coated
6
Add the reserved starchy cooking water, a little at a time, stirring it in as you go
Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the sauce has the consistency of bolognese – this is your chestnutmushroom bolognese
Tip: Pasta water adds a little starch to the sauce, helping it stick to the linguine easier
