Ingredients

• 800 g Russet potatoes
• 4 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 Onion
• 2 Carrots
• 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

Directions

Step 1

Peel and chop the potatoes into even chunks. Boil them in a large pot of salted water for 15-20 minutes or until tender.

Step 2

While the potatoes are cooking, finely chop the onion, carrots, and celery. Mince the garlic.

Step 3

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.

Step 4

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.

Step 5

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.

Step 6

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

Step 7

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.

Step 8

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes until the top is slightly golden.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy this comforting vegan Hachis Parmentier.
