“If you think nut roast is a boring vegetarian cliche, think again! This little beauty is chock full of delicious nuts, seeds and spices that come together in a taste sensation. Don’t be put off by the number of ingredients – most of these are lurking in the average spice rack and it comes together really quickly and easily. It works brilliantly as a roast dinner but also anywhere you would normally use mince, such as in a bolognese sauce, “meat”balls, rissoles, chilli or shepherds pie. If making for Christmas, you can add lots of allspice and nutmeg in addition to the named spices for a lovely festive flavour, and wrap the nut mixture in puff pastry to make a delicious Wellington-esque dish, or make sausage rolls with the mixture. The possibilities are endless!”
