Ingredients
1 1/2 tbsp olive oil, plus more for greasing the pan
1 1/2 cups mushrooms, button or chestnut (finely diced)
1 large onion, finely diced
1 large bell pepper, finely diced
7 oz pecans
3 1/2 oz blanched almonds
2 1/2 oz pistachio kernels
1 cup mashed sweet potato, (see recipe notes)
1/4 cup chives, chopped
1/2 cup parsley, chopped
2 flax eggs, (1 flax egg = 1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 2 tbsp water, set aside for 10 minutes)
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
1/4 cup gluten-free flour
2 tbsp tomato paste
1 tbsp mustard, ensure vegan and gluten-free
2 tbsp tamari
1 red chilli pepper, de-seeded and finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
Instructions
1Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C (350F) and grease a loaf pan with olive oil.
2Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan or skillet. Add the mushrooms, onion and bell pepper, and cook for 5 minutes, until they soften.
3Meanwhile, add the pecans, almonds and pistachios to a blender or food processor, and blend quickly to form a crumbly mixture.
4Transfer the cooked vegetables to a large mixing bowl together with the nuts. Add the sweet potato, chives, parsley, flax eggs, paprika, salt, cumin, garlic powder, gluten-free flour, tomato paste, mustard, tamari, red chilli pepper, and garlic. Mix together really well.
5Transfer to the loaf tin and flatten down well using a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, until crispy and golden brown on top.
6Allow to cool for around 5-10 minutes, then use a butter knife to loosen the nut roast around the edges. Place a serving board on top of the loaf pan and carefully flip upside down. Remove the loaf pan and serve.
