tried and tested veggie nut roast recipe

[messyartist]

Got veggie friends over this WE and really wanted to try nut roast recipe with a sauce to go with it.
I use to have a fantastic recipe that included parsnips, chestnut mushrooms and cashew nuts with a sherry sauce and mushroom....not done it for years and can't find it.
any help greatly appreciated

Sorry... this isn't very clear what I really mean is a nut loaf ...cooked in loaf tin. can't find anything the net.

nut and lentil loaf I add more veg to it though

I make a very basic one which you can mess about with.

1lb mixed nuts, whizzed until finely chopped
1/2lb breadcrumbs
1/4pint or so boiling water
3tspns yeast extract dissolved in the water
1 onion, chopped finely and softened in oil
1 grated carrot
1tspn dried herbs of choice or some fresh chopped herbs.
Black pepper.

Mix it all together until you get a stiff mix. Press half of it into a non stick 2lb loaf tin. Then I do one of a couple of things. At Christmas, I spread a couple of tablespoons of cranberry sauce over the nut mix. Other times, I slice a couple of tomatoes, lay them on the nuts and sprinkle over some grated cheese. You can also spread a layer of mushrooms cooked in butter and garlic over the nuts. Then press the remaining nut mix into the tin. Bake at 180 for about 45 minutes. Let cool a bit, turn out and slice.

Many thanks .. like the sound of cranberry sauce and layer of mushrooms
