Lentil roast with herb stuffingThis was a cashew nut roast, I've changed the recipe and swapped the nuts for lentils, the amount is a guess but should be about right! My 2 "Free from" books are down at the cafe again. 
50gr marg
1 large onion
8oz lentils (cooked)
100gr breadcrumbs (if you can't get spelt or gluten free use ground hempseed, maize flour or mashed potatoes)
2 large garlic cloves
200 mls veg stock
salt and pepper
grated nutmeg
1tbls lemon juice
Set the oven to 200 and line a 1 pound loaf tin.
Melt marg and fry onion for about 10mns till soft but not brown. Remove from heat.
Put onions and everything else in food processor and mix. If the mix is a bit sloppy add some rice flour, it should be a fairly firm mix so it holds its shape.
FOR THE STUFFING
100gr breadcrumbs (substitute as before if needed)
50gr marg
1 small onion 1/2tsp each thyme and marjoram
25gr parsley.
Mix all the stuffing ingredients together.
Put half the lentil mix in the tin, then a layer of stuffing then the rest of the lentil mix on top. Bake for about 30mns until firm and lightly brown. Cool before turning out.

I've been reading this with interest as I have a vegan friend. I can't imagine being without onions - it would be like being without a book, I would panic!
