These deliciously earthy, lentil stuffed portobello mushrooms make for the perfect alternative to a nut roast or wellington. Alternatively, it’s a great midweek lunch or dinner that looks like more effort has gone into it than is actually the case – every host’s dream! 

Ingredients

  • 300g Merchant Gourmet Dried Puy Lentils 
  • 1 x Kallo Organic Mushroom Stock Cube
  • 500ml boiling water
  • 2 large portobello mushrooms 
  • 100g Merchant Gourmet Whole Cooked Chestnuts, roughly chopped
  • Handful of fresh sage, roughly chopped 
  • 2 sprigs thyme
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 20g parmesan
  • 250g kale
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180C. 
  2. In a small pan, cook the Puy lentils in the Kallo mushroom stock and boiling water. Let the water boil for 5 minutes, before reducing to a simmer and leave the lentils to cook. 
  3. Meanwhile, use a spoon to scoop out the filling from your portobello mushrooms. These will eventually be filled with the cooked Puy lentils. 
  4. Then, make the chestnut crumb. Heat your chestnuts, sage and thyme leaves in a small, wide based pan with a little olive oil until golden brown. 
  5. Once your lentils are cooked, fill your mushrooms with them and top with your chestnut crumb and gratings of parmesan. 
  6. Place in the oven for 15 minutes until the mushrooms have cooked and the cheese has melted.
  7. For the last 10 minutes of cooking time, cook your kale in the oven until crispy. 
  8. To serve, place your mushrooms on the bed of kale and enjoy!
