Ingredients
- 800 g Russet potatoes
- 4 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 Onion

- 2 Celery stalks
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 200 g Brown or green lentils
- 500 ml Vegetable broth
- 2 tbsp Tomato paste
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1 tsp Dried thyme
- 1 tsp Dried rosemary
- 3 tbsp Nutritional yeast
- 200 ml Unsweetened plant-based milk
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tbsp Chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Peel and chop the potatoes into even chunks. Boil them in a large pot of salted water for 15-20 minutes or until tender.
While the potatoes are cooking, finely chop the onion, carrots, and celery. Mince the garlic.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery, and sauté for about 8 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic, lentils, vegetable broth, tomato paste, soy sauce, thyme, and rosemary. Cover and let simmer for 25-30 minutes until the lentils are tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
Once the potatoes are tender, drain them and return to the pot. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, nutritional yeast, plant-based milk, salt, and pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
In a baking dish, spread the lentil and vegetable mixture evenly at the bottom. Top with the mashed potatoes, smoothing the surface with a spatula.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes until the top is slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve warm and enjoy this comforting vegan Hachis Parmentier.
