Instructions
- Start by soaking the soy curls according to package directions. Drain, then squeeze as much liquid out of them as you can with your hands.

- Add the diced potatoes to a pot of cold water. Add a few pinches of salt to the water. Bring the pot to a boil, then boil the potatoes for 10 to 12 minutes or until they are tender. Drain.
- Now, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil on medium high in a large non-stick skillet.
- Add the soy curls with all the liquid to the skillet. Sauté, reducing heat as needed until the soy curls are brown and firm. About 5 to 7 minutes.
- Remove the soy curls from the skillet and put into a bowl, set aside.
- Now, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the skillet. Then pour in the apple cider vinegar, garlic, mustard, sugar, salt and pepper. Stir to combine everything and heat on medium low.
- Let the sauce simmer for a minute, then add the potatoes, pasta, soy curls and parsley to the skillet. Then toss to combine everything.
