Description
A delightful vegetarian dish packed with savory flavors, featuring mushrooms, lentils, and potatoes, perfect for cozy dinners.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 kg mixed mushrooms, roughly chopped
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 5 garlic cloves, minced
- 100 ml white wine or vegetable broth
- 250 g cooked puy lentils
- 1 tablespoon miso paste
- 400 ml vegetable stock
- 100 ml plant-based cream
- 1 tablespoon cornflour, mixed with 1 tablespoon water
- 10 g parsley, finely chopped
- 3-4 medium potatoes, finely sliced
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (fan-assisted)/390°F/gas mark 6.
- Heat a large pan over medium-high heat and add a good glug of olive oil.
- Fry the chopped mushrooms in batches for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they have softened and turned golden brown. Remove them from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, add another glug of oil over medium heat. Once it’s hot, toss in the finely chopped onion with a pinch of salt. Sauté for about 8-10 minutes, stirring regularly, until the onion is soft and translucent.
- Add the minced garlic to the pan and fry for an additional minute to soften the garlic.
- Increase the heat to high and pour in the white wine. Allow it to simmer and bubble for 2-3 minutes until it nearly evaporates.
- Return the heat back to medium and add the cooked puy lentils, miso paste, vegetable stock, and plant-based cream. Stir everything together.
- Whisk in the cornflour slurry and let the mixture simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring regularly until it thickens and becomes glossy.
- Stir through the sautéed mushrooms and chopped parsley, then taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Remove the pan from heat.
- Layer the thinly sliced potatoes over the mushroom filling in an overlapping spiral pattern. Brush the top with olive oil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes until the potatoes are golden and soft throughout.
- Allow the hotpot to sit for 5 minutes before serving.
