Vegetarian Christmas roast

"What do you eat on Christmas Eve, Niru?" I've been asked this question for as long as I can remember, it always comes up in conversation with both old and new acquaintances. In fact, I eat all the usual side dishes, but try to make myself a different "main course".

This year I have my mom visiting and she is vegetarian, allergic to nuts, gluten and milk is also not possible. So it will be a bit limited, but it is not a problem for me since I use such things at work :) Last year I made vegetarian burgers from potatoes and red beans. This year I have tested out this "roast", my mom actually doesn't like soy minced meat much either so I am very excited to see what she says. I have already tasted it and am simply very satisfied :)

This is what you need:

50 gr soy minced meat

50 g zucchini

50 g carrot

30 g mushrooms

50 g fresh spinach

30 g paprika

40 g eggplant

1 tbsp grated ginger

2 teaspoons ground coriander seeds

1 tsp garam masala

½ tsp chili powder (mine is hot)

3 tablespoons of fiber husk

3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh coriander

Sunflower seeds or other seeds/nuts to taste

  • Cut the other vegetables into small cubes, mix in the spices.
  • Squeeze the water out of the minced meat and add the fiber husk as a binder.
  • Mix everything and pour into a greased loaf pan, sprinkle with seeds and bake in the oven at 175 ° for about 15 minutes.
