Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup red lentils uncooked
  • 3 cups chestnut mushrooms finely chopped
  • ½ medium eggplant finely chopped
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 1 large carrot finely chopped
  • 1 large red bell pepper finely chopped
  • 3 talks celery chopped
  • 2 tbsp tomato puree
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp cranberries chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 small bunch cilantro chopped
  • 1 tbsp Flaxseed ground
  • salt sea salt, to taste
  • 2 tbsp buckwheat flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees C/356 F. Meanwhile, cook the red lentils according to instructions on packaging - this usually takes 10-15 minutes. Make sure they are cooked through but not mushy. 
  2. Add the mushrooms and aubergines to a baking tray lined with baking paper and roast in the preheated oven for around 10-15 minutes. 
  3. Meanwhile, add the onion to a non-stick frying pan. Cook over a medium heat for a few minutes. Then, add the bell pepper, carrot, celery, tomato purée and black pepper. Lower the heat and cook, stirring frequently, on a low heat for around 10 minutes. 
  4. When all the ingredients are ready, add them to a large mixing bowl together with the cranberries, garlic, cilantro and flax egg. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Wait a few minutes until the mixture had cooled down and stir in the buckwheat flour. 
  5. Transfer the mixture to a loaf tin lined with parchment paper and roast in the oven for 35-40 minutes, making sure it doesn't burn. Serve immediately, or leave in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
