Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit. Line a loaf pan with aluminum foil.
- In a food processor, blitz mushrooms. (Or coarsely chop if a food processor is not available). Set aside.
- Blitz the onions and garlic in the food processor and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over high heat until it sizzles. Add mushrooms, onions, garlic, ½ teaspoon salt. Cook without a lid to let the water reduce / evaporate as much as possible.
- Add soy sauce and tomato paste, mix thoroughly. Remove from heat and let cool.
- In a food processor, combine oats, cashews, sunflower seeds, cornstarch, dried thyme, salt, black pepper, and ground sage. Set aside.
- Drain and rinse kidney beans from the cans. Blitz in the food processor.
- In a large bowl, combine mushroom mix, oat mix, kidney beans, and cooked rice. Mix. Press the mixture into the prepared loaf pan and smooth out the top.
- Bake for one (1) hour.
Notes
Taking a small part of the mixture (like a mini meatball) and cooking it in a skillet can act as a taste test to add more spice before baking.
