I'd love to have the recipe converted when you get time. It sounds very like the nut roast I used to get at Tesco. Probably a much nicer version, especially with the mushrooms.
There you go. I became a little too long.
NØTTESTEK - Nut steak
(that third recipe with my personal twists)
1-2 cups of cooked basmati rice or any rice
2 cups of mushrooms and some extra for decorating
1 large onion diced in small bits
2 garlic boats minced (around 2 tablespoons minced garlic)
2 tablespoons olive oil (or the oil you prefer)
2 teaspoons timian (optional, add the herbs you prefer really, I use loads of parsley and spring onions)
2 teaspoons estragon (optional, add the herbs you prefer)
200g walnuts or hazelnuts (thinly sliced)
100g almonds (thinly sliced)
3 to 5 eggs (optional in my opinion)
200ml any type of vegan cream (I use Oatly)
300g grated cheese (I currently use vegan cheese “Green Vie” or Norwegian vegan cheese “Gryr” )
Salt and pepper
What I will add in my own recipe:
1 apple (peeled and grated)
3 tablespoons tomato “passata”
1 to 2 teaspoons lemon juice
In a mixer roughly process the mushrooms into small bits and set aside.
Add the nuts to the mixer and lightly process into not very small bits, add the cooked rice and process to a homogenous but rough mixture.
In a pan fry the diced onion in olive oil, add minced garlic and then add then mushrooms (and the lemon juice if using, I use lemon).
Let them cook in high heat for a while.
Add salt and pepper and the herbs you are using (timian, estragon etc)
In another bowl mix rice and nuts mixture with the eggs and cream (if using those, I don’t use eggs, I will add grated apple and tomato passata).
Mix everything well with a spatula. Add the mushroom mixture to the nuts and rice mixture and mix well until homogenous “dough”. Add cheese if you using it and mix again.
Add baking paper to a bread pan and place a layer of sliced mushroom for decoration. Add the mixture on top and press well with hands to make a very pressed dough.
Bake for one hour in a preheated oven at 180C. Check with a wood pick if the “nut steak” is firm and cooked. If not completely cooked, bake it a little longer.
Serve with mushroom sauce and “tyttebaer” jam (I haven’t got a clue how “tyttebær’ is called in English). They sell it in IKEA.
Mushroom sauce
100 mushrooms (the type you prefer)
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon timian or any other herb you prefer
100 ml vegetable stock
200 ml cooking simple cream ( I used vegan Oatly or Norwegian “Gryr”)
2 or 3 drops of lemon juice
Salt and pepper
(I sometimes add soy sauce or balsamic vinegar to harmonize the flavor, but it all depends on the final taste of the sauce).
