Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 lb whole-wheat spaghetti
2 onions
3 tbsp vegetable oil
4 tbsp tahini ( adjust to taste)
4 tbsp tomato paste ( adjust to taste)
1 1/2-2 cups water
2 tsp yeast extract (optional)
freshly ground black pepper , as required

Directions:

1. Cook the spaghetti.
2. Meanwhile, chop the onions and fry them in the oil in a saucepan for a few minutes until lightly browned.
3. Add the tahini and tomato paste and then the water (start with the smaller quantity and if the sauce is too thick, add the rest). Bring to a boil, stirring constantly until thickened. Stir in the yeast extract and add pepper to taste. Simmer, uncovered, for a few minutes.
4. When the spaghetti is tender, drain it and pour the sauce over it.
Enjoy!
