Ingredients
- 1 cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
- 1 sliced onion
- 2 spoonfuls vegan butter
- Half a cup of cooked lentils
- 3 chopped tomatoes
- 1 cup of frozen beans
- 1 chopped carrot
Preparation
- Boil the cauliflower whole for four minutes, drain it and place it in an ovenproof dish.
- Glaze the cauliflower with our Masía El Altet extra virgin olive oil
- Add salt and put it into the oven at 190º for 15 minutes. Since all ovens are different, check that it’s golden before you take it out.
- Once it’s golden, cut it up into medium-sized pieces and put it aside.
- Now, sauté the onion with the butter stirring it from time to time so that it doesn’t burn.
- When it’s golden, add the lentils, the tomato, beans and the carrot.
- Cook for a few minutes and season. To serve, put a layer of the lentil mixture on the plate and place the pieces of cauliflower on top.
