Instructions to make Vegan nut roast:
- Preheat oven to 190 C degrees.
- Grease a 450g/1lb bread loaf tin with vegan butter or coconut oil, and line with baking paper.
- Prick sweet potato with fork and wrap in foil. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until soft enough to mash. Alternatively, microwave for 5-6 minutes until soft. Peel when cooled.
- Core and rough chop parsnips into 2cm chunks.
- Peel and rough chop carrots into 2cm chunks.
- Bring a medium saucepan of water to the boil and cook carrots for 5 minutes, then add parsnips. Cook for a further 10 minutes or until carrots are just soft enough to mash, then remove from heat and drain.
- Meanwhile, finely chop mushrooms and shallots and gently fry in a medium frying pan with a knob of vegan butter or teaspoon of coconut oil until just beginning to soften. Leave to cool.
- Use a pestle and mortar or end of a rolling pin to crush cashews, walnuts, pumpkin seeds and almonds so that no whole pieces remain - keep chunks for a good texture.
- Add cooked carrots, parsnips, sweet potato to a bowl and lightly mash together.
- Add cooked mushrooms, shallots (and mushroom and butter liquid) and all nuts and seeds to bowl.
- Add nutritional yeast (if using), breadcrumbs, seasonings and salt & pepper to taste.
- Mix well using stick blender, spoon or hands. It should hold its shape. If too wet, add more breadcrumbs or oats.
- Press well into tin and smooth over top.
- Bake in oven for 30-40 minutes, rotating half way through, or until a crust has formed on top and edges are brown and crispy. If you like a firmer 'loaf', cover with foil and bake for another 10 mins.
- Remove from tin and leave to cool slightly before slicing. Keeps well for up to five days in the fridge, and can be frozen too.
- Optional extras* - - - Lightly toast almonds and cashews in a frying pan before crushing - - Add dried cranberries and/or chopped apricots before baking for a fruitier version - - Add 1 tbsp peanut butter or cashew butter for a nuttier version, or as a substitute for one or more of the nuts above - - Add 1 tbsp of maple syrup or agave nectar for a sweeter version
