Place the TVP into a heat proof bowl, add the marmite/vegemite and 200ml of hot water, or enough to just coat the TVP. Mix well and set aside.
Place a frying pan on medium heat, add half the oil and once hot, add the vegetables and garlic. Fry for around 5-7 minutes, until browned then push to the side of the pan.
Add the remaining oil into the pan and add your rehydrated TVP. Fry for 3-4 minutes until browned.
Deglaze the pan with vinegar and then add your remaining ingredients, crushing the plum tomatoes by hand.
Reduce to low heat, cover and leave to simmer for 20 minutes.
Once finished, remove the bay leaves and you’re ready to either serve with pasta immediately or store.
