Ingredients

Method

  • Simmer the red lentils in a pan with the boiling water and stock cube. Keep stirring and do not allow it to burn! Once all the liquid is gone, turn off the heat.
  • Gently fry the chopped mushrooms, courgette (zucchini), garlic and onion in the oil with a little salt and pepper.
  • Mix fried ingredients into the pan of lentils, then mix in the grated cheese, fresh parsley and the egg.
  • Pour the mixture into a large square dish or 4 smaller dishes, decorating with sliced tomatoes and/or peppers if desired.
  • Cook in the oven on a medium heat for around 30-40 minutes until golden on top.
  • Can be eaten hot or cold, you can swap out the vegetables for others if preferred, or bulk out with more!
  • Remember you'll get more flavour if you use a mature cheese!
  • Great served with a side salad or mixed veg.
