There’s been lentils in a soup, lentils in a bowl, even lentils with rice and it’s all been so nice. Why not try lentils in a pie (that one rhymed too!)? Season them in aromatic chermoula flavours and stir through a tomato sauce with roasted veggies. Add a Cheddar mash topping to create the perfect pie for tonight’s dinner.

1 portion

3
potato
2 clove
garlic
1 packet
button mushrooms
1 packet
lentils
1 sachet
chermoula spice blend
1 packet
tomato paste
1 packet
baby leaves
1 packet

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Bring a medium saucepan of lightly salted water to the boil. • Cut cauliflower into small florets. • Place cauliflower in a baking dish. Drizzle generously with olive oil and toss to coat. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
• While the cauliflower is roasting, peel potato and cut into large chunks. • Cook potato in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return to the pan. • Add the milk and butter (for the mash) to the potato and season generously with salt. Mash until smooth. Cover to keep warm.
TIP: Save time and get more fibre by leaving the potato unpeeled!
• Meanwhile, finely chop garlic. • Thinly slice button mushrooms. • Drain and rinse lentils.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook mushrooms until browned and softened, 8-10 minutes. • SPICY! This is a mild spice blend, but use less if you’re sensitive to heat. Add chermoula spice blend, garlic, lentils and tomato paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add the brown sugar and water and cook until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. • Add baby leaves and the butter(for the filling) and gently stir through until leaves are just wilted.
• Transfer lentil filling to the baking dish with the cauliflower and stir to combine. Top with potato mash and spread evenly. • Sprinkle over shredded Cheddar cheese. • Bake pie until lightly golden, 8-10 minutes.
• Divide lentil and cauliflower pie with cheesy mash top between bowls to serve. Enjoy!
