    Method

    Step 1
    Heat the oven to 180ºC/160ºC fan/gas mark 4. Line a large loaf tin with baking parchment, then heat a wide pan with the oil and butter and add the onion and celery. Cook for 5 minutes until starting to soften. Add the aubergine, mushrooms and garlic and cook for 10 minutes until soft.

    Step 2
    Stir the carrot through and cook for a few minutes, then stir in the herbs, lentils and tomato purée. Add the stock, cover and cook on a low heat for about 15 minutes until all the liquid has been absorbed. Leave to cool for about 20 minutes.

    Step 3
    Stir the breadcrumbs, nuts, cheese, parsley, beaten egg and a little seasoning into the mixture and mix well. Press into the loaf tin and cover with foil. Bake for 20 minutes, then remove the foil and cook for 25 minutes more or until golden brown and firm when lightly pressed.

    Step 4
    To make the Romesco sauce, whizz together all the ingredients using a stick blender. Heat briefly in the microwave or in a small pan and serve with slices of the loaf.
