    MMMMM--------------------KIMCHI CHEESE SAUCE-------------------------
    5 tb Vegetable shortening or oil
    1 sm Onion; chopped
    1/2 Russet potato; thinly sliced
    2 cl Garlic; minced
    1/2 Jalapeno; sliced
    1 Chipotle pepper in adobo

    1 ts Garlic powder
    1 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Korean chili powder or
    - paprika
    1/2 c Water
    1 c Cashews; soaked in water for
    - 4 hours to overnight
    3 tb Nutritional yeast
    1/2 c Almond milk
    1 ts Pickled jalapeno juice
    2 ts Kimchi juice

    MMMMM---------------------------PASTA--------------------------------
    1 Box brown rice pasta

    MMMMM--------------------------TOPPINGS-------------------------------
    1/2 c Bread crumbs
    1 tb Sesame oil; +1/2 tb
    1/2 ts Agave
    1/2 tb Gochujang
    1/2 c Kimchi; ripened
    1 ts Toasted sesame seeds

    Cooking time: 45 minutes

    In a small pot, melt vegetable shortening and add onions and garlic.
    Cook until softened. Then add potatoes, jalapeno, chipotle,
    gochujang and seasoning. Stir until potatoes start to soften and all
    vegetables are evenly coated.

    Deglaze the bottom of the pot with water and bring to boil. Cook until
    potatoes are tender.

    Empty contents of pot into high powered blender. Add remaining
    ingredients and blend on high for a few minutes, until creamy and
    smooth.

    Cook pasta until al dente. Reserve ~1/4 cup of pasta water before
    draining. In the same pot that you cooked the pasta with, add pasta
    and cheese sauce, as well as a little pasta water in case sauce gets
    too dry. Scoop pasta into oven safe container. I used two cast iron
    pans.

    For breadcrumb topping, mix breadcrumbs, salt, and 1/2 tb sesame oil
    until breadcrumbs are nicely coated. Sprinkle over the top of the
    pasta.

    Place in 450?F oven until breadcrumbs are golden brown, 15 to
    20 minutes.

    In the meantime, heat up 1 tb sesame oil in a small skillet. Add
    kimchi, gochujang, and agave and saute until kimchi is caramelized.

    Add caramelized kimchi to baked pasta. Sprinkle with toasted sesame
    seeds.
