    Serves

  • tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 carrots, finely chopped
  • 500 g Swiss brown mushrooms, diced
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 2 pots Continental Stock Pot Sensations Vegetable Stock Pot
  • 400 g canned lentils, rinsed and drained
  • freshly ground black pepper, to serve
  • 4 cups cooked pasta, to serve
  • vegan parmesan cheese, to serve

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large deep frying pan over medium heat. Cook onion and carrot and for 6-8 minutes or until softened. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.

  2. Increase the heat to medium-high. Add remaining oil and allow the oil to get hot. Add mushrooms. Cook, stirring, for 6-8 minutes or until mushrooms are golden brown. Stir in garlic, cook for 30 seconds.

  3. Return the onion mixture to pan. Stir in passata and oregano. Bring to a simmer. Add stockpots and stir until dissolved. Stir in lentils. Reduce heat to medium. Cook for a further 10-12 minutes, stirring regularly, to allow flavours to infuse and sauce to thicken. Season to taste with pepper.

  4. Stir cooked pasta through mushroom mixture. Serve with vegan parmesan-style cheese.
