Chef's Notes

You could use any of the other lentil varieties but steer clear of red and yellow lentils if you want a bake with a bit of bite. Check packet instructions for cooking times.Choose a waxy potato variety which will stand up to being cooked for half an hour without dissolving.Nutritional information is only an approximate guideline. Calculations will vary according to the ingredients you use and your cooking methods.

Made this last week and it was really tasty.
I used the left over celeriac up by making the celeriac and apple soup which was also yummy.

Did you make this recipe?
