1. Heat the olive oil in a large pan and sauté the diced onion, pepper and garlic until soft.
2. Add the tomato paste and fry briefly.
3. Add the cherry tomatoes, maple syrup, smoked paprika powder and chilli flakes. Simmer for about 5 minutes until the tomatoes break up.
4. Add a dash of cooking water, the pasta and the vegetable cream. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Prepare the caramelised onions:

2. Add the maple syrup, mix well and season with a pinch of salt. Set aside.
Prepare the cashew crunch:
