1. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add a generous pinch of pink salt, then the penne, and cook according to the package instructions.
2. Finely slice the mushrooms and set aside.
3. Blend 1/2 cup cashews with 1/2 cup water in a high-powered blender until smooth. If you don't have a high-powered blender, soak the cashews overnight first. Set the cashew cream aside; you will use half of it.

5. Heat a sauté pan on medium-high and add a drizzle of olive oil.

7. Season with salt and pepper and sauté for 2–3 minutes more.
8. Add the vodka and deglaze the pan. Cook for a few minutes until the alcohol has cooked off.
9. Add half of the tomato puree and half of the cashew cream, and stir to combine.
10. Drain the cooked pasta and add it to the sauce with a pinch of salt. Stir until it starts to bubble.
11. Plate and top with chopped basil, cracked pepper and a drizzle of olive oil.
