Melt the butter in a large pan over medium-high heat.
Once it begins to bubble, add the mushrooms.
Cook for 6 - 8 minutes until golden brown and fragrant.
Add the chopped onion, celery, carrot, and minced garlic.
Cook for another 5 minutes until soft.
Add the walnuts, tomato passata, vegetable stock paste, and all of the spices.
Stir to combine and cook for 10 – 15 minutes. This will allow the sauce to thicken and the spices to all combine. Make sure the sauce remains the right pasta sauce consistency, adding a small amount of water if needed.
Prior to making the sauce or during, prepare the Spaghettini pasta according to the instructions on the package in a large pot.
Rinse and strain.
Add the grated mozzarella into the Bolognese sauce and stir to melt.
Transfer the pasta into the large pan with the sauce, mixing thoroughly to combine.
Pour the pasta into a serving dish and stir in all of the fresh basil.
Separate the pasta into individual dishes and add extra red chili flakes or mozzarella to serve!
Serve this Dwayne Johnson style with toasted bagels and enjoy!
