Ingredients:
6oz red lentils
330ml water
4oz grated cheese
1 onion
fresh parsley
cayenne pepper
lemon juice
1 egg
splosh single cream
salt & pepper
knob of butter
How to do it:
Preheat oven to gas mark 5 (190C). Cook lentils in water until soft - 20 mins or so. DON’T LET THEM BURN BECAUSE THEY WILL STICK TO THE PAN AND BE IMPOSSIBLE TO GET OFF!
Add onion, lemon, cheese and parsley. Whip up egg and cream and pour into lentil mixture. Add seasoning.
Grease a loaf tin with plenty of butter and press the mixture in. Bake for 45-60 minutes until the top is brown. Let stand for 10 minutes before turning out. Serve hot or cold with tomato sauce. [based on Sarah Brown’s Vegetarian Kitchen]
